No, i didnt skip. I just reread the original trilogy just before getting my hands on shadows/bands/SH.

WoK and WoR were second reads too. Following along with you guys is too much fun.

Location: Middle TN, USA		I just finished Hero of Ages and if I ever see Mr. Brandon Sanderson at a con, I'm going to walk right up to him and give him a huge hug and then kick him in the nuts!!!!! That is what he just did to his readers, the ending was both tragic and beautiful and I plan to eventually read the next books in the series, but I'm going to need a minute to recover. But why, why, why. That is all I can really say about this third book in the series.

Location: Salt Lake City, UT		YES!! That's the reaction I love to hear! So glad you enjoyed it, and that the ending got such a strong reaction from you. It's my favorite ending in all of fantasy literature. I get wanting to recover before moving on with the series, certainly nothing wrong with that. Be aware, though, that the tone of the Mistborn Era 2 books is very different. So jumping from one to the other is not continuing in the same vein. Where Era 1 is big and emotional and E-P-I-C, Era 2 is more simply adventurous, along the lines of Indiana Jones or Sherlock Holmes. Whenever you get to it, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
