He has said multiple times before that there are no plans to write any more in the WoT-verse. However, if it is a WoT story, that would explain why it’s up there as a “secret project.”

Remember we’re doing the eightball variant this time around. You have to get all of your agents and then get the assassin.

Ah yes, got it.

Thanks @Kurkistan! I agree with all of Kurk’s answers. Yes you can (EDIT: yes you can play last chance cards before a card erupts, that is), but note the “before.” Once the problem card erupts it’s too late, but if you see that a card is about to erupt you can hurry and play cards before it does. Note that, as Kurk pointed out with the “Queue,” you could use this to your advantage by playing a rioter to cause a problem to erupt prematurely, and the other players wouldn’t be able to play cards in response (other than playing a hazekiller or smoker on your rioter). I don’t remember where it was either, but the question was whether or not you could play a Smoker on a Seeker to changes who gets to look at the hand and steal a card. The answer was no. You can play a smoker to change which player’s hand gets looked at, but you can’t change who does the looking/stealing.

the Reod and the Ire are both blue agents. And it looks like @luckat already marked them on the spreadsheet. Thanks. the countdown timer has ended though, so it’s the Red Team’s turn now.

I have, several times, and I still don’t get the reference...

Eh... I don’t know about that. I doubt he’s going to start calling all of his books in progress Secret Project #X just because Apocalypse Guard had issues. Anything that is a sequel or has already been previously announced and talked about will likely just be called what it is (e.g. “The Aztlanian,” “the Lost Metal,” etc). I suspect it’s something new or something that hasn’t really been talked about much (like “the Dark One” or the Threnody novel(la))

The second picture is the original. When firefight was published they redid the Steelheart cover to the top picture to match the style of the Firefight cover. Notice how the top picture says “the Reckoners book 1.”

That’s easy, you reread all your Sanderson novels! Right now I’m rereading Steelheart as part of the Reckoners (Re)read Challenge for the Reckoners board game Kickstarter. The goal is to read (or reread) the entire Reckoners series before the Kickstarter campaign ends. But it you insist on having some non-Sanderson recommendations, then fine. Patrick Rothfuss’s Kingkiller Chronicles is really the only fantasy series that I have read that can stand toe to toe with Brandon’s stuff, though be prepared to wait for sequels. Book 2 came out in 2011. Still no release date announced for book 3. The Night Circus is a story about two competing magicians (real magic, not stage magic) who use a circus as their “playing field.” It is incredibly good and it really makes you feel like you are there, experiencing the wonder and magic of the night circus yourself. Can’t recommend enough. If you’re up for a fun Sci-fi read with lots of entertaining pop culture references, I have two recommendations: 1. Ready Player One. Imagine if World of Warcraft took over the world. Literally. The movie adaptation hits theaters next month. Especially fun if you are old enough to remember the 80s. 2. The bobiverse trilogy. Same sort of feel as RPO.

Personally, I’m hoping for it to be the behind the scenes Marsh story he mentioned to me at a signing a couple months ago. It’s probably not, but I can hope, right? EDIT: by the way @Dunny, you totally failed with your thread title. You should have named it “there’s always another secret project”

Okay, my turn. Cataclysm. 3. Link to spreadsheet @Jondesu @xinoehp512 @Totally_Not_A_Worldhopper

@Scion of the Mists is right. You guys should still have about 38 hours left.

*Digital bro hug* Hang in there buddy. You’ve got this!

I missed exactly when the countdown timer ended, but @luckat it’s your turn.

I hear you. I mean, I personally am already happy to spring for the deluxe version (I ended up spending IIRC ~$180 on Mistborn House War what with the deluxe version, the penny gems, and the expansion), but for Reckoners I wish that they had toned down the components of the base version a bit to make it more affordable. I feel like if they could have brought it down to a ~$50 price point then we would see much higher sales for the game. That being said, from a gamer’s perspective I can understand why they decided to go for the best quality components right out of the gate. It definitely has an impact on the enjoyability of the game. I’m just not sure it was the best decision from a business standpoint.

I backed it as soon as it went live. I’m very excited for this one, too.

Yalb, Kabsal and Cremlings are all blue agents. You have one more guess if you wish to use it.

Okay, my clue is: Sketchbook. 3. Link to spreadsheet EDIT: @Jondesu @xinoehp512 @Totally_Not_A_Worldhopper

Adolin Kholin, Jasnah Kholin, Bridge Four, and Surgebinding are all red agents.

Pretty sure “Warrior” is supposed to be like the song that plays during the credits of a movie. It’s pretty clear (IMO) that it’s about Kaladin.

@Rebecca @Scion of the Mists @Darkness_ Just a friendly reminder that at the time of this post you only have about 12 hours left to make any guesses you want to make and finish your turn.

@Scyora oh wow, you weren’t kidding. Some of those names have absolutely no connection to the book they’re attached to. “Warriors of Fire” for Well of Ascension?

The Blackthorn is really good. I’ve listened to it a number of times and still can’t figure out if it’s supposed to accompany the chasm fiend hunt scene or the scene when we first see Adolin and Dalinar charge the Parshendi. The neat thing is that it could fit either scene really well.

Oh, good to know. I stand corrected.
