In for one chance to win an awesome dust jacket.

People are probably going to hate me for saying this but I'm a little disappointed Wax didn't stay dead. I think it would have been more interesting to see how Marasi and Wayne would have to step up to finish what Wax started. It also lessened the scene between Wax and Wayne as he died because I was pretty sure Wax wouldn't really die but it is Sanderson so there was some doubt. Otherwise the book was great. I'm very excited for more airships and metallic art based technology.

Hmm, I had forgotten that they left Urithiru before the betrayal. It could be taken as a sign of things to come. First the KR abandon their city and holding the kingdoms together. Later they abandon their duties in protecting the people. Not to mention leaving them at the mercy of new lighteyes taking advantage of the powerful armor and weapons they left behind.

It blew my mind and confirmed Brandon as my favorite author.

Sell. The cryptic line about Szeth's punishment and honor relating to the existence or non-existence of the voidbringers I think suggests he would be bound to oppose them. Additionally Odium is playing it smart this time around in waiting for humanity to weaken itself before the desolation and would avoid choosing a champion if it gave humanity any chance against him. Renarian will discover how to create new shardplate.

I think the betrayal of the KR might stem from events after the day of Recreance. We know from Dalinar's vision The KR gave up their shards to a bunch of soldiers or at least two orders did, but who beyond those there would know the new shardbearers were not KR? The new shardbearers could have posed as KR or just let everyone assume they were KR, but not follow their ideals. The new bearers then could take advantage of a populace that relied on the KR for protection and trusted them to act honorably and ethically to gain power, prestige, and wealth. I think one of Jasnah's notes hints at this where it talks about tariffs at Urithiru becoming unreasonable and showing the true nature of the so called Radiants. Edit: I found the note it is at the beginning of Chapter 46.

Hello everyone, I have been reading the site for a few months now and its quickly become one of my favorites. I want to thank everyone that put together the Cosmere guide and Brandon interviews. I have been studying up and trying to spot all the connections when I re-read all of Brandon's Cosmere books this summer.
