What was everyone’s first book set in the Cosmere? I started with The Way of Kings shortly after it was released, but immediately gobbled up everything else.

    Way of the King is going to my first official cosmere book once I finish rereading Mistborn. Halfway through book 2!

      What? Then it sounds like Mistborn is your first official Cosmere book?

        Yep, I misspoke as I view Cosmere and Mistborn as separate even though I know they are all connected. I haven’t read anything past the Mistborn books so I have very limited understanding of things beyond those books so it’s hard to wrap my head around the concept which is why I mentally view them as separate things. After this re-read I’m going to to fully dive into the Cosmere and I recall Way of the King as the best introduction to the larger scope of his fantasy world.

          I’m excited for your journey, enjoy.

          I personally recommend Warbreaker before Way of Kings. Because having Warbreaker under your belt before Stormlight 2 will definitely enable you to enjoy the story more, and you won’t want to stop to read it after Way of Kings

            Thank you! Warbreaker it is then! I’ll start with Warbreaker then Way of the King. I’m also excited as well! I forgot how much I loved the Mistborn books, so I can’t wait to start his other works.
