About the book:
The only life Tress has known on her island home in an emerald-green ocean has been a simple one, with the simple pleasures of collecting cups brought by sailors from faraway lands and listening to stories told by her friend Charlie. But when his father takes him on a voyage to find a bride and disaster strikes, Tress must stow away on a ship and seek the Sorceress of the deadly Midnight Sea. Amid the spore oceans where pirates abound, can Tress leave her simple life behind and make her own place sailing a sea where a single drop of water can mean instant death?

Which Brandon Sanderson novel should I read next???

[@DuffyHimself]

The original Mistborn trilogy for sure. Mistborn and Stormlight being the major Cosmere series also mean that there'll be the most easter eggs for these in other books. Like Dr. Ulaam from Tress is from a race that originates from Mistborn.

[@imtalkingwaffles]

Oh such a cool Easter egg!! Mistborn it is!

[@RDsLibrary]

From your goodreads, I don't think you've read Mistborn era 1. As a series, I think it might be better than Stormlight, although the first 2 Stormlight books are my still my faves in terms of character depth and pay off. Mistborn has a YA feel. The magic is interesting, the twists are very good (as you'd expect), there's a bit of romance, some politics and lots of emotional ups and downs. I really liked the found family aspect. I hope you enjoy it of you decide to pick it up.

[@imtalkingwaffles]

I read the first one a really long time ago and loved it! I remember pausing reading it because the ending was SO SAD. I think I’m mentally prepared to reread the first so I can read the rest!

[@EvoRms]

The end of The Hero of Ages is just my all time favorite. You can also go for Yumi and the nightmare painter, or The Emperor's Soul if you prefer some stand alone

[@glx3846]

Hi, I enjoyed watching your vlog! This book sounds awesome! I really like the cover and title font!

[@imtalkingwaffles]

Thank you! It's such a beautiful cover!

[@EvoRms]

Aluminium... Time to jump into Mistborn

[@imtalkingwaffles]

I just bought the first book of that series!

SPOILERS FOR THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE So you know the spores that become Midnight Essences ? In The Way of Kings, there is this vision of Dalinar where he is in the body of a farmer called Herb and he has to fight this weird creatures. Those are called Midnight Essences. Also in Oathbringer, Shallan fights against an unmade that was in Urithiru and that creates Midnight Essences. Another point, Wit is mainly known by the name Hoid and he is also in theMistborn books that you also read. Finally, I saw your reactions to the Stormlight books and I have to tell you that you should read Warbreaker, asap, you'll learn more about certain things related to the Stormlight Archives. Oh yeah another connection to the Stormlight Archive : Tress has a cup that comes from the Iriali civilisation, a group of people that left the planet centuries ago and that originally came from another planet. In the Stormlight Archive there is a nation called by the Iriali that are these people with Golden hair and skin...

[@imtalkingwaffles]

Ahh this is super cool I never noticed these things! Warbreaker is my next Brandon Sanderson book for sure

[@cosmerejunkie7931]

If you’d like More insight into the sorceress at the end of the book you should read Elantris

[@imtalkingwaffles]

Ouu okay!!

[@momo_genX]

You are a fun person and this is a great video. I wish you all the success that doesn't amount to the selling out to the KZbins. Satire!

[@imtalkingwaffles]

Thank you! No selling out here 🙌🏻

[@RDsLibrary]

After hearing your thoughts, I'm very tempted to pick this up. I like Wit, but don't think humour is Brandon's strong point. He can be a bit dad-jokey. I was worried about the secret projects being standalones, as his strength, IMO, lies in being able to tell a vast yet immersive tale in 3 or 5 books. That said, what you mentioned makes it sound very interesting.

[@imtalkingwaffles]

It’s a really fun read for sure! I’m a huge fan of dad jokes so that may have been why I liked this so much 😂 I agree though larger stories spread throughout other books are definitely his best! I think if you go into it knowing it isn’t a super serious read you’ll enjoy it 😊
