I'm so excited!!!

I like WaT much better than KoWT personally.

Could Syl become a gun?

Agreed.

Done.

Who is your favorite spren?

I think if Adolin dies in book 5, Shallan's fragile mental state is going to snap completely. That seems like a strange direction to take her right at the end of her book sequence.

What are you guys most looking forward to seeing or learning in book 5?

Interesting thoughts. Ah, sorry. How do I edit the title? I didn't think about it being a spoiler.

Kaladin killed Shallan's brother. I think this is the biggest unresolved plot thread in the series. These are the two characters with more pages devoted to them than any other characters in the Stormlight Archive. Shallan briefly finds out about it in Oathbringer and then it immediately gets swept under the rug. Knowing Brandon, this will surely have a massive effect on the story. Shallan killed her mom in self defense and her dad was a murderous lunatic who she eventually also killed. Her other brothers had serious issues and brushed her off. But Heleran was kind to her. Heleran was the most stable and loving presence in Shallan's childhood. And Kaladin killed him. Shallan is very good at suppressing things... until she suddenly doesn't. My question is, how do you guys predict this will play out?

Shallan. I'm the most invested in her. I love that Brandon just lets her be herself, warts and all.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but we've had some new Cosmere novels published recently such as The Lost Metal and Tress of the Emerald Sea, so I wanted to see how people would order the Cosmere novels as of 2023. You don't have to have read them all to post. Just rank the ones you've read. I haven't finished Tress or Lost Metal yet, so my list would be: Words of Radiance Rhythm of War Oathbringer Way of Kings Warbreaker Bands of Mourning Mistborn Final Empire Shadows of Self Hero of Ages Well of Ascension Elantris Alloy of Law

I like this idea.

I love Kaladin, but he usually gets 90% of votes in a favorite main character poll so I was curious to see what would happen to the numbers if we took him out of the running. Vote away!

Is there a character that you didn't like/care about at first, but has grown on you as the series went on or on re-reads? Who and why?
