I actually really enjoyed ELANTRIS! I know it's his first published novel, but the role of the city, it's culture, and how it's developed as a character were all up my alley #booksky #cosmere #sanderson

Finally tapping into Sanderson's secret projects! Sanderheads - which one is your favourite ?? 👀
I really love the YUMI cover but TRESS seems more my vibe. The fact he can tackle these wildly different genres at all in the Cosmere is just so cool 🤘🏼

I just finished reading Tailored Realities by Brandon #Sanderson and... wow, that final novella.

Oh, a new _Sanderson_ book – the last one was more than half a year ago. So, what do we have here: ### Context Firstly, _Isles of the Emberdark_ is another book from _Sanderson’s_ now iconic _Secret Projects_ drop. Secondly, it is a _Cosmere_ book – meaning it takes place in his cross-series universe of the same name. And finally, it is also a sequel to the short story "_Sixth of the Dusk_ " from the _Arcanum Unbounded_ anthology. The author mentions at the beginning that it is difficult to write a direct sequel to a story that few people will have read, which is why that original story is integrated as flashbacks in the first part of the book. This doesn’t mean it stands on its own. On the contrary: this is a book that few authors could get away with, as in my view, it requires the current status quo of the major _Cosmere_ book series, including spin-offs. In short: It is **fan service**. Much like _Tress of the Emerald Sea_ or _The Sunlit Man_, it is deeply woven into the _Cosmere_. Furthermore, it is set very far back in the current timeline. I believe you should have read at least the following books to truly understand all the references or to avoid being spoiled: * The _Stormlight Archive_ series, * the _Stormlight_ novella _Dawnshard_, * _Mistborn_ Era 1 and Era 2, * _Mistborn: Secret History_ and _Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell_ , both collected in _Arcanum Unbounded_, * and _Tress of the Emerald Sea_. So, you really should have done your homework. But there are rewards: For one – to my knowledge – we finally learn something real about _Yolen_ and its inhabitants – a place of significant importance for the _Cosmere_. And then: Since the story takes place at the end of the timeline, it also references events that haven't even happened yet. Vague hints, more teaser than exposition, but still – pretty cool. But only if you are truly deep into the _Cosmere_. Did I mention the **fan service**? ### Plot The story is – as mentioned – a direct sequel to a short story. The original story was about a trapper making his way through a dangerous jungle island and dealt with the opportunities and dangers of technical progress for existing traditions [1]. This book takes place five years later [2], and the former protagonist of the adventure story now finds himself, in the first half, in a book about politics, colonization, and **science fiction**. The protagonist _Dusk_ finds himself in a world that no longer needs island trappers; however, his world is in danger of becoming a pawn for major powers. This leads him on a journey to the eponymous _Emberdark_ to find his people's past and a means of defense. ### And? As you can tell, the book demands a lot of prior knowledge. Time and again, I had to look things up or try to remember if I had heard a certain name before, who mentioned people were, all while having a constant fear of missing something important. _Sanderson’s_ _Cosmere_ has grown so large that the original premise – that you could read the book series selectively without prior knowledge – no longer holds true [3]. Nevertheless, in the end, I felt somewhat rewarded, even if it felt a bit like a teaser for things to come. Also: I hope that the upcoming _Mistborn_ Era 3 will streamline the _Cosmere_ approach once again.

So, what is the #Sanderson equivalent to „slashdotted“? I nominate #Sandstorm.

Qué gozo leer #ImperioFinal, de #Sanderson. Aventuras más de capa y espada que de espada y brujería (y ésta, menos mágica que metalúrgica), con intrigas palaciegas y argucias picarescas elevadas a plan de golpe maestro que escala a golpe de Estado. Vibraciones de Dumas, Scott o Stevenson.
