I think I've read all of Sanderson except for Stormlight (I'll read it as soon as he finishes it). Is Stormlight the series that makes the cosmere make sense?
Like, I know the cosmere is a thing. And I'm aware that all these disparate worlds are somehow interconnected. Other than a cameo of characters near the end of Wax & Wayne, there is never a reference to the cosmere in anything I've read.
I enjoy his books, but I don't get the significance of The Cosmere at all.
You will recognize a character that makes waves in Stormlight named Hoid. He makes cameos in pretty much every work of Sanderson’s.
