omg your theory on the "third god" and Sazed's religion is so right and so wrong at the same time, i literally laughed out loud. You are going to love the ending, I can't wait.
Honestly I’ve been kind of blessed that I had fallen out of reading for a lot of years. Which sounds backwards but it allowed me to have so many gems I haven’t read. I’ve got many years of top tier series ahead of me before I even have to reconsider rereads
@@conorreads Yeah, I suggest keep consuming new content. Even though a re-read of The Wheel of Time is amazing, I am all for discovering new greatness regularly. If you love the three series I mention, I suspect you’ll also love the following books I’ve already read which I’d rate as superb: 1. The rest of the Mistborn series-excellent for your prediction approach to RUclips 2. The rest of Abercrombie’s books following the First Law trilogy 3. Many of Sanderson’s other adult fantasy offerings, especially Warbreaker, Elantris & The Emperor’s Soul, and Tress of the Emerald Sea 4. S. A. Chakraborty’s series (City of Brass, Kingdom of Copper, Empire of Gold, River of Silver) If you’re willing to branch out into sci-fi, I would recommend: 1. The Expanse series (9 novels + 9 short stories) 2. The Red Rising trilogy (I haven’t read the follow up books) 3. Andy Weir’s “Project Hail Mary” Other fictional works which aren’t actually fantasy or sci-fi but which I would consider masterpieces: 1. If you haven’t already read it or seen the movie, Stephen King’s “The Green Mile” 2. If you haven’t already read it or seen the movie, Khaled Hosseini’s “The Kite Runner” 3. Abraham Verghese’s “Cutting for Stone”
One thing to think about: yes, if course it’s not Prosper but Preservation, but you already know that. It’s important though, because the two are different in key aspects. Preservation sounds benevolent at first, but it also implies a lack of change and stagnation. Neither Ruin nor Preservation are something you‘d want solely by themselves if pushed to the extremes.
I think I forgot to share my favorite Well of Ascension meme with you. It’s that prequel meme with Anakin and Obi-Wan. Vin (as Anakin): I’ve brought peace and unity to your new empire! Elend (as Obi-Wan): My new empire???
I was happy when I saw you already started HoA. I was expecting to not see this until next week. I enjoy listening to both your analogy and predictions. Once you finish the series you should watch a few other RUclipsrs doing the same with first read-throughs so you get the same feeling of anticipation for others to discover these for themselves. The one place I must disagree with you. Prosper and Preservation are miles apart. :) One is to exceed and the other is to Survive.
3 questions as a callback to book 1: What do we known how Vin got her earring? How/when Vin was able to kill the Lord Ruler? How do you pay for a Kandra contract?
"They can Rayquaza the situation" is a crazy quote

You are going to love the ending, I can't wait.
Aha that’s how it always seems to go
So many fantastic predictions, you’re going to love the end of this book! Even the ones that are wrong have an amazing nugget of truth in them.
Love a good nugget of truth
Right then boys, lets make "Prosper" a meme that Conor can never escape... because we're all bastards :D
It’s pretty close to preservation
Im sorry @@conorreads it is not
Preservation will get you for your sins.
@@baroneimensenpai9600oh no
It's kinda amazing how right you are with a lot of the predictions this early in the book
I actually get further away on a few of them as I go which is annoying
Live long and Preservation! In other news, Awesome new video! Love how quickly these keep coming
Thanks! More to come
Live long and preserve.
In the past couple years you read The Wheel of Time, First Law, and Mistborn. That’s some serious S-tier fantasy consumption in concentrated fashion!

I’ll add all of these to my to be read list! Thanks bro

It's so fun to see you enjoying these books. Interesting predictions that only RAFO can confirm or disprove.
As always!
I like the way you navigate the predictions already in this book. Can't wait to see backtracking as you fill in blanks
Thanks :) so much goes down in this book it’s crazy
Nice Rayquaza refernced loved that haha
Pokémon emerald had many hours sunk into it back in the dayb
@@conorreads same here haha!

Yeah you are right, I was trying to justify not redoing the whole video (and I managed to) haha
preface author is so engaging
They are
If I had a nickel for every time Marsh was the MVP by removing a hemalurgic spike....
Damn... 🤐
if you give away your mistborn collection..i would like to be first in the line lol
Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Prosper. Lmao.
3 questions as a callback to book 1:
What do we known how Vin got her earring?
How/when Vin was able to kill the Lord Ruler?
How do you pay for a Kandra contract?
Her mother, when it was removed I believe, hmmm atium….
@@conorreads About question 1 we known a little more, but also RAFO. Like your predictions :)
