    First off NO COSMERE SPOILERS IN THIS INTERVIEW. Second, I realize this isn't your normally scheduled programming. I appreciate all of you letting me chat to someone who I really enjoy and I know many of you are Cosmere fans, either independently or because Mark and I dragged you into it. Hopefully this is a fun interview regardless.

    34:49 i actually do wonder how LoVM compares in viewership to arcane S2. I'd imagine arcane probably blows it out of the water since it has a bigger fan base, but still I'd like to see

    It's a really good book... It's not perfect, but if has a lot that is just...so good. In a lot of ways it feels like a setup and i think people expectations and attachments gets in the way of some people's opinion. I think many people that had honest negative reactions will revise their opinions down the road and appreciate this book much more than their initial impression....(there are a surprising number of trolls that aren't really somewhat disappointed fans, but are just trolls trolling out of hatred with an agenda)

    • @luketeichert9700

      It's nowhere near the quality of previous books. 3/4 of it feels like filler that should have been heavily edited

    31:00 personally I don't really like cozy or romance books in general. But Tress is just that good that I love it anyways. That plus the shorter length i think is the simple reason here. Its just fun all the way with great story characters and pacing

    Worse book he ever wrote. I think everyone has put Sanderson on a pedestal like Lucas and prob his inner circle scared to tell him the truth. This prob the weakest book of the series. The characters are not even the same characters we have been reading. The pacing is horrible, the writing is just shitty my uneducated ass can write better and the ending was wtf!!! I hope he writes the 6th better and takes his time. Get a better editor to

  • @thisswedishlife7775
    @thisswedishlife7775 Місяць тому +3

    The obsession with the MCU and its success is really evident in the latest book, and only detracts from it in everyway. The Cosmere has been thoroughly 'Marvelised' and it's a shame.

  • @tostupidforname
    @tostupidforname Місяць тому +1

    To me the some of the main appeal of his works is the connected Universe and since stormlight is the longest series Its the best opportunity to use all of these systems together. Because of that I just hope he will as much as possible.
