Woah, a lot has happened. lol XD

Amir watched, his heart crumbling into pieces as he saw Ottoline cry. He wished he could do something, but at the moment, Hugo seemed to be comforting her instead.

But everything was interrupted by a shake of the house.…[Read more]

@fernweh_grace

No worries, we all have lives, I knew you would get around to it eventually.

Those are excellent points. Things like dragons specifically might drag on the story’s ability to distinguish from other stories (pun almost unintended🤦‍♂️). Dragons are a unique case I think though, they can be unoriginal, but they have a timeless…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I like the revisal. Do you think that the Paynes of the labor camp would use names still, but perhaps only in hushed tones especially around Pythonos?

Anyway, I it is a good introduction to Ottoline’s character. An issue that I’m beginning to see now however is that it still feels like there’s no continuity of characters. Who…[Read more]

@jonas

True, but being for a younger audience doesn’t make rebels not star wars cannon for example. And Cecil G. Bagsworth is in it, so while it may be purely an easter egg, I think there are ways of making it work. That being said, there are definitely some non-Cosmere books that are going to be their own thing, like Infinity Blade.

@jonas

I’m sure that many have. I’ve looked into it a bit, and it seems like there’s been a lot of discussion amongst fans about it, and Sanderson has even planned on writing more books related to a multiverse like Frugal. 17th Shard simply says that it has been a common theory that poses similar evidences that I worked out and mentioned already.…[Read more]

@jonas

A very different earth. North America for example is split up into islands, not a mainland, but that being said, it is still objectively an earth in history, cultures, and names, but that’s what makes the multiverse theory so compelling, especially with Frugal.

@jonas

Yeah, sorry I didn’t make that clearer😅 It would be odd for Rithmatist to be Cosmere, since it is explicitly an alternate earth, though he might of originally intended for the magic system to be used for a different planet instead, which would make sense.

@jonas

Oh, and legion also suggests the possibility of alternate realities in some discussion, where the different aspects could be real people elsewhere, but it’s half posed as a joke.

I love siblings😂

@jonas

Frugal Wizard, Rithmatist, Reckoners, as well as skyward, Alcatraz, Legion, and a few others I haven’t read or considered.

What makes the theory convincing to me is the continuity of interdimensional travel, and alternate earth history. It both makes basic continuity issues dissolve, but it is itself a continuity. They…[Read more]

@jonas

That is true, and I can say that his other books are still really good. I’m becoming increasingly convinced that they all exist together in a multiverse separate from the Cosmere.

@jonas

Warbreaker is available online, in case you didn’t know.

That is very good to know, thanks!

Yeah, a friend of mine has finished all of the cosmere, and the majority of the rest of his books, and has been panicking about what else to read😄

@jonas

Well, too spoilery to me, I just didn’t read Hope of Elantris, and I think that’s it, because I haven’t read Elantris, but Emperor’s Soul, while on the same planet, was pretty stand alone. Unbounded basically has all side stories in the Cosmere with a few exceptions of newer stories, but they might be added later in updated…[Read more]

@jonas

I’ve recently finished Arcanum Unbounded, skipping over the few books that were too spoilery, but from that, I’ve read Emperor’s Soul, Forests of Hell, Sixth of Dusk, White Sands 1, as well as Mistborn: Secret History. Emperor’s Soul I found interesting, but from what I could tell at least, didn’t contain much impact on the grander…[Read more]

@smiley

Ooooo, I like it!!

@whalekeeper

LOVED that Seb scene, girl!!!

@freedomwriter76

AWWW LEON!!! 😭😭😭

It’s so sad his wife died in October, such a beautiful time of the year that he has to deal with that.

@smiley

Okay, cool! Wasn’t sure. XD

@freedomwriter76

*dies*

All of their stories… 🤣🤣

I love it!

@smiley

AWWWW

I love all of the kids!!!

Wait, so are Chrissa, Anna and Mason bio-siblings in different families?

@whalekeeper

I will forever respect you now. I have never been stung by a bee, miraculously, but I have no wish to. You have braved a challenge I have never encountered. *Raises glass*

*bows* well thank you.

*salutes* t’was very difficult, but alas, life tends to be…
