Shallan!
I’ve started the Stormlight Archive.
Vin and Elend ✨
I wonder if one of the books will have the kite-based magic system that Brandon has mentioned
I’d love for it to be in the graphic novel he wrote for his kids!
My race training schedule didn’t ask for a long run today but I need to do something with the chaotic energy I’ve been feeling since watching the update
Me: I cannot justify $320+ for Cosmere swag
Also me: Excitedly putting $160 down for the hardcovers
Planning to reread Mistborn Era 2 in 2022 and it’s wild to know that it all happens post Stormlight 5
It’s been 9 goddamn years
I’m going on 13 years I think? I’ve been reading Brando’s books for more than half my life
i forgot to actually back the kickstarter bc kickstarter wasn’t working when i first tried and was like “ok i’ll do it later” and then didn’t
Dragonsteel also sent out this update yesterday
Sanderson Secret Project Artists
Secret Project 1 - Howard Lyon
Women of color!!!!!!!! The promise of not white washed characters!! I’m in love
We’re going to have canon Sigzil art by a woman of color (will it make up for the endless suffering that man is going to endure? ♀️)
I can’t believe this is a real thing on Brandon’s official YouTube channel
Someone was paid to film/edit this ad
I haven’t read any of the Secret Project chapters and I don’t think I will. Not out of a desire to go in blind when the books come out (I haven’t blocked any of the tags) but because I know they’re drafts and I was so disoriented reading Cytonic after the opening chapter felt so different from the sneak peak he released
I am, however, delighted at all of the commentary/content I’m seeing on tumblr about the books
The American covers for the Cytoverse books are just… bad. I feel so strongly about how much I dislike the art on them that I specially ordered these UK editions weeks ago and finally got them in the mail this week
My race training schedule didn’t ask for a long run today but I need to do something with the chaotic energy I’ve been feeling since watching the update
In case anyone was wondering, my post-Sanderson announcement energy took a full minute off my average pace on yesterday’s 4 mile run
These are some of my favorite reads of 2019!
I need new people to talk about books with. If you like any of these series or books let’s talk :-)
- Stormlight Archives / Cosmere
- A Song of Ice and Fire
- Farseer Trilogy
- Gentleman Bastards
- Donna Tartt (Secret History, Little Friend, Goldfinch)
- Classic Literature (trying to read more)
Want to start reading more this year.
Knight Radiant of the Order of the Survivor:
- I will survive.
- I will find secrets.
- I will have extra drama.
- I will cause problems on purpose.
- I will be the next secret of the universe.
Dalinar at the beginning of Words of Radiance: I intend to rebuild the Knights Radiant!
Adolin: But they all had special powers!
