I really love this channel. I first discovered it a few months ago when the only Cosmere book I'd read was Warbreaker. And holy shit is the Cosmere my favourite fictional universe now (after reading the stormlight archive). The connections, sneaky bits of lore, Hoid, and the ingenius way Sanderson knits together the magic systems in implicit ways, I mean Hoid mentions he has perfect pitch now in passing in WoR, he uses allomancy in the Shallan flashback, and his cryptic means that he must tell truths about his past to lightweave, cleverly using magic to answer questions. (I am aware of investiture, and the shards, I'm just admiring how well Sanderson uses the magic systems to create really interesting situations). When I found out that the Cosmere existed, and was a connected universe with worldhopping, solar systems, the three realms and an underlying magic power (investiture, of course), I was so impressed, and and I adore it, even more than the Eternal Champion multiverse, or LoTR. But yeah, this channel is fantastic, the editing style and speculation is brilliant. Sorry, long comment, but I like this stuff. (Hoid is probably one of my favorite fantasy characters, alongside Emiel Regis, the highly eloquent and abstaining barber-surgeon-vampire)
Having not read Dawnshard yet, how many people think the Lanceryn are Larkins that have fed on enough stormlight? Considering they pupate during highstorms and all and I think it has been implied that Rysn's larkin is growing quite a lot
I love your videos. If I had one suggestion it would be mention in your video or at least description spoilers though ______. That way years down the line I know where this fits and what questions may have been answered in a future book. Thanks so much for your work!
So, all the music was written by me, but has not actually been released to the public. I plan on releasing it for free on this channel at some point. Let me know which tracks you liked best and I can prioritize releasing those ones first.
