Started the way of kings today

Very confused a few chapters in lol

Do you have any questions?
The Prelude of Way of Kings can be a bit overwhelming since it kinda just launches you into the world without much explaining. But you definitely learn more as you go.

If you don’t know already there’s a source online called the Coppermind which is like a Brandon Sanderson Wiki site that can answer basically any question you have if one of us can’t help you!

Lol I remember those feelings. Honestly I didn’t feel like I had a firm grasp on what was happening until I read about half the first book. There’s a lot to digest and understand because it’s such an expansive world. Ask any questions please! It helps!

Yeah I remember laughing when I saw it the first time xd.
It's a double edged sword though so tread lightly. On one hand it's very helpful as you'll want to refresh your memory many times while going through the Cosmere. I always read their summary of any Cosmere novel before going into it's sequel.
But on the other hand it's just full of spoilers so be quite careful and don't read thourogh descriptions of characters or plot points, just enough to remember, and then you leave before the temptation gets the better of you haha.

Oh reading a summary beforehand is a great idea! I will definitely do that when continuing to Oathbringer!
