i loved this collection comprised of short stories from places all over the cosmere. i started this 9 months ago and kept it on the side, waiting until i got to stormlight archive book #3, before i read it to completion. there are a couple of stories which would spoil the plot for other cosmere books, but they're clearly labeled beforehand.

my fav stories were definitely “the emperor's soul” and “shadows for silence in the forests of hell” - that second one, what a name! they were so different from existing cosmere books, and i hope we can see more of them someday.

i also really enjoyed getting behind the scene notes from brando sando himself giving context for having written a particular story, and any future plans for said stories.

this is truly a must have for any cosmere fan.
