I have been a lurker of the various Sanderson-themed subreddits. Unfortunately for me and my fellow introverts, there isn’t much here to lurk at (yet!). I thought maybe we could get things started by discussing how we all got into the Cosmere. I’ll go first!

In November of last year, a friend of mine recommended I read Mistborn. I had just barely started reading again after a long break and was in need of a new series. I was about to go on a long drive, so I borrowed the audiobook from the library so I had something to listen to. I didn’t realize what I was getting myself into. In the last six months, I have read every single Cosmere book I could get my hands on, and have absolutely loved each one. I finished it all off with Tress last month. My only regret is not getting into this sooner so I could have been a part of the Secret Project Kickstarter.

Here’s hoping we can get this community going!

    Everything started with me randomly picking up Wheel Of Time series. Change of author made me skeptical of its ending, but oh boy Brandon did not disappoint. So I looked for more of his books, and soon started with The Way of Kings. There was a short period whenever I should read it or Mistborn, but given all arguments against staring with Stormligth were “It is big” I dismissed them and gone straight to magnus opus.
