The Final Empire, Mistborn Book 1, Brandon Sanderson Aviendha Send a noteboard - 05/03/2017 08:06:54 PM

I never got too in depth into book discussions on this site, and I'm not sure if I ever started a full discussion on my own. But, in the spirit of rekindling RAFO, I'm gonna give it a shot. So, please bare with me.

That's right, get your kit off and let's get down to business

Well, so far I have only read Chapter One. Wheels do not turn, ages do not come and pass, and most importantly, winds do not blow and meander along aimlessly before Sanderson sets up his world. Ash falls, mists at night. Two main classes of people. Slaves and Lords. I'm immediately drawn in.

But now I need your help. First, does anyone even want to discuss/read along with me? If so, what is the best way to organise this - a few chapters/sections at a time in posts below?(e.g. 'Chapter 1' Discussion, and so on) Random discussion? Themes? Although themes would be hard when I haven't read the whole book.

We've all grown older I think and good lord, my heady carefree college days are long over, so I may not be able to post or even read the book every single day, but I hope we can get some decent discussions going on this board again. And if I start to slack in my thread, go ahead and carry on without me!

I started this book back when B-Sand was announced as the new writer for WoT - 05/03/2017 08:39:00 PM 1133 Views
His writing is better when it's his own work, but your criticisms are still going to be valid. - 13/03/2017 05:45:21 PM 809 Views
He's a storyteller, not a shrink or novelist that tries to make points (political or societal). - 14/03/2017 10:19:52 PM 813 Views
I don't disagree, really. - 15/03/2017 06:21:26 AM 851 Views
There's mindless, and there's stupid - 24/03/2017 05:52:08 PM 841 Views
His writing does seem awkward at times - 16/03/2017 06:17:43 PM 778 Views
Hmm, I'd love to do this. I don't have my copy of Mistborn though. - 05/03/2017 08:45:28 PM 893 Views
Cool idea. I haven't read the book, but as for organization... - 05/03/2017 11:33:28 PM 925 Views
Looks like there may be a little interest - 06/03/2017 09:55:05 AM 876 Views
I'm up for a book club discussion - and I have Mistborn ready to go! - 06/03/2017 02:02:15 AM 853 Views
Sounds like fun, but I don't think my schedule will allow - 07/03/2017 12:29:01 AM 813 Views
