[–] richard_wagner@lemmy.world 12 points 3 years ago (2 children) The Way of Kings. I read all of Sanderson’s major novels in order up to this point and I’m really enjoying TWoK. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Cmot_Dibbler@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago (2 children) Make sure to read Secret History. It's pretty short but really really good. Im not sure where would be the best point to put it but i read it after all the Mist Born books and Rhythm of War. Which i think is later than intended but it still felt right. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] nandeEbisu@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) I read it after all tree books of the first Mistborn Trilogy, I think I preferred it that way, kept more of the mystery around the events of Well of Ascension and Hero of Ages. Edit: Totally misread the second sentence, thought they hadn't read everything. permalink fedilink source parent [–] richard_wagner@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) Okay, cool! I hadn’t heard of Secret History but I’m going to check it out. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] nandeEbisu@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) If you're sensitive about spoilers, I would wait until after reading the first 3 mistborn books. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] richard_wagner@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) Thanks!

I read them in a wonky order. I read the Stormlight Archive first, then backfilled mistborn, and snuck in Elantris. I basically see references I don't get, then try and read the book they came from, then hop back to the major books. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TheloniusFuegoRhymes@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago Dude. It’s only up from here. I started my Cosmere reading with TWoK and was instantly hooked. They’re still my favorite Sanderson stuff for sure. permalink fedilink source parent
