WARNING: SPOILERS FROM THE FIRST BOOK: THE FINAL EMPIRE. I made a topic in case someone wants to write stuff. I think me and jarek are both reading this now... I don't know if this is the right way to make a topic...

I'm on chapter four. It's nice to see Sazed as a viewpoint character, I wanted to learn more about him and how ferulchemy works. I wonder if the mists are actually the deepness and they just "won" and spread everywhere. I guess the Lord ruler was keeping them in check somehow but now that he's dead it's growing stronger and appearing In the day. I think he was using the atium to do that but I'm not sure how.

You did it correctly. :) In most cases, if it's wrong, Scott or I will change it so don't worry about the formatting too much.
Iam up to chapter 10 now. Sazed is an awesome character:) and I get the feeling he will be crutial later on. Then there's the whole watcher thing...i have no clue here. The mists do seem to play a bigger role here. PS Kel....why the fuck did u go and do what you did?!? I can really feel his absence in this one and it pisses me off:D
By the way marsh is awesome as an inquisitor:)
Just finished part 1. (view spoiler) Overall the Kandra are so weird to me and creepy as hell...what do you think eric? I mean they are just disgusting in what they do but interesting nontheless
Mod
Yes he does. I remember from the stormlight books:D

I love the Kandra, but yes, the concept is a bit creepy.

One hand she doesn't trim him well but on the other he did eat kel...i mean I can just imagine what that does to her psyche

Maze just appeared. Very interesting guy I have to say:) and the colossus....damn!;) this is gettingmore and more complicated plot wise. Iam lovin it:D
I finished part one. Yea I miss kelsier. So can all Kandra not harm people or is that only in OreSeurs contract?
I think it depends on the contract they sign
Oh actually it said it's for every kandra.
They are a mysterious speeches
Have you read any of the annotations?
No I didn't. After I finish the book I might read them though:)
Iam up to part 3 so far and the plot thickens. Iam feeling breeze and /or sazed will play a big role here
Oh yes and I really like Oresur:D just sayin'
Holy shit I haven't thought of that!!
Oresur is the greatest
Wow you already finished Jarek. What did you think of it overall? I'm about half way through. I just had a chapter with that ska merchant.
I couldn't stop reading and iam already 30%into the hero of ages:DOverall...freaking amazing. The last 20% is just unbelievable. By the end I changed my view on certain characters 180 degrees for the better. The stuff that happens...holy shit:) keep reading Eric you will love it ;)
I'm 65% done. I'm glad it was mentioned how in the first book Clubs originally walked out of their meeting because he didn't want his emotions soothed by Breeze. That has really bothered me because he is a smoker so it shouldn't affect him.
The good stuff is coming up:)
If you think this book is awesome wait for the hero of ages:D
How do you rank the three? And I think I will read warbreaker first and then the last one because I will be too sad when I finish it so I want to wait and make it last longer.
I loved all of them. The well of ascension dragged just a little bit somewhere in the middle but it wasn't that bad. I gave all 3 5 stars. Now iam finishing the shadows of self and its also really really good. It takes a bit to get used to the new surrounding and characters but when you do they are awesome. Especially Wayne:D ill be starting warbreaker in a buddy read on the 22nd cant wait:D
And then the bands of mourning. That will be cosmere up to date I think for me:)
I may be a few months late but I'm starting this one tonight. I MUST know what happens after The Final Empire! :D
