Wow! This is a completely different take on Tress than I had but it still works you think discworld I think Disney princesses. 🤷♀️ I find it awesome that we have different perspectives but reached the same conclusion 😊.
ОтветитьTress and Emperor's Soul could be great Disney movies.
ОтветитьWait why not audible???
ОтветитьThis book was an experience for me. I couldn’t believe how much I loved it. It doesn’t have the ‘weight’ that Mistborn and Stormlight do, but it was beautifully written and you can feel Brandon’s whimsy shining through. It was hilarious, captivating and it’s one of those books that just makes you smile as you read it. 10/10 would recommend.
ОтветитьFinally getting to watch your review as we just finished reading it to our 3 year old! On to book 2!
ОтветитьWhat’s up with One Piece constantly getting compared to the Cosmere? I guess I need to check it out at this point
ОтветитьJust solid story. Consistent and satisfying.
Didn’t throw any major curveballs for me but it didn’t have to.
Did have one part which made me have to walk around my room to appreciate it.
Love this book. The thing that stood out to me the most was the narration. I have never read narration like that before. It’s somehow funny, cheeky, clever and yet insightful, meaningful and deep at surprising times. I love how certain chapters get small moments of thematic circularity, where Hoid goes on some seemingly random tangent at the beginning of the book only to incorporate it into the events of chapter later on in a clever and interesting way. Absolutely brilliant!
ОтветитьWhat were the two “misses” ?
ОтветитьThis was my first Cosmere book and I can safely say that I'm looking forward to immersing myself more in the worlds of Sanderson. 😁
ОтветитьThe ending plot twist is what got me. Litterally did not see that coming. Where does he get this stuff from?!
ОтветитьI just read the book last week and loved it! It’s also my first Sanderson novel!
ОтветитьI literally got an ad at 1 minute for this video.
ОтветитьHoid, as always is a LEGEND. If it has a lot of hoid in it, it is an absolutely amazing book. (He's my favorite book charachter ever)
ОтветитьThanks for the video Daniel! Finished this a couple weeks ago, and it's SO dang good! Even though I definitely saw some things coming, it was so beautifully executed that I didn't care! Reading the outro too, seeing that he was influenced by Princess Bride just made me love the story even more! :D
ОтветитьGonna review frugal wizard?
ОтветитьJust got my box today!!!
ОтветитьI have read every single cosmere book out there, but I devoured this on a different level. A one day blitz read of joy
ОтветитьI just finished this book, so so so good, how does he do that 👏👏👏
ОтветитьIt took me 2-3min to realize this video is not about the "Andromeda ‘Emerald Sea’" IEM's xD
ОтветитьYes. Exactly. Reading the book was a blast.
ОтветитьDid anyone else imagine Hoid eating apples lounging on a giant velvet chair.
ОтветитьSo One Piece and Cosmere which are both my favorite things. Guess I'm getting this too lol
ОтветитьYou know, I like that you are reviewing things, but, to be honest spoiler free reviews don't really hit hard. Do you feel like they are getting the views you are looking for? I feel like full spoiler reviews would be much more insightful, though i can get why you would want to do it the other way...
Ответитьif it feels kinda Discworld it is because of Hoid being the narrator, honestly.
ОтветитьSPOILER WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️:
What I disliked was not having a proper explanation about how Huck the Rat landet on the exact ship he needed to be..
I've got The lost metal on my TBRTIHBY(To be read that I hav'nt bought yet). And I think you just added this as a high priority.
Ответитьsuch a great juxtaposition of dangerous/beautiful environment, playful narrative/high stakes, character growth/ignorance. It was just so great when it had no real right to be. Kinda like The Lego Movie.
ОтветитьI really enjoyed Tress. I didn't read anything about the plot so I was pleasantly surprised at it being a pirate story. I really enjoyed Hoid's narration. And while I enjoy the Easter egg hunt that is finding other World hoppers and the like, I really enjoyed how on the nose this one was about them, especially because my non-cosmere friends picked it up as well
ОтветитьLiked it very much except 90% of Hoid's "jokes" about are about clothes. It got really old really fast. If Hoid was established in the Cosmere as someone who is really concerned about clothes then it MIGHT have worked. He isn't and it didn't. Otherwise a sweet book, great world building.
ОтветитьI´M A HUGE, HUGE, FAN DEL COSMERE. BUT.... INHALES IN LATIN I can not pass from chapter 5 of One Piece, tried so many times. :(
Ответитьcant wait for my box!
ОтветитьMaybe I’m alone in this, but I don’t think Sanderson was having any “misses” before his last two books. Though I have only read his cosmere books. Also this book was amazing.
ОтветитьI'm 8 chapters in and really disliking this book....I'll stick with it b/c we all love Sanderson
ОтветитьJust finished the book and really enjoyed it. Definitely a fun and playful pirate tale with a Cosmere twist. If the rest of the Secret Project books are to this standard, then I can't wait!
ОтветитьOk relating this to One Piece has my attention.
ОтветитьAs a guy that already loves both One Piece and the Cosmere, I feel like i'll like this one quite a bit. Looking to pick it up soon.
ОтветитьWhile I'll always love the HUGE sweeping 1,000 page epics the most, and I'd rather read those than something this young and playful, it was still fantastic. I'm just disappointed more people aren't laughing their asses with thunderous applause off at a certain undead someone saying "Earregardless" (in Tress 😂😂) --- because, you know, "irregardless" isn't a real word. But now that I type this, I realize anyone who only listened to the audiobook will have missed that pun. 😥
ОтветитьHey Daniel you probably won't read this and might not care.. but I wanted to mention that I loooved the designs of your stuff especially the hoodie, and the only reason I didn't get it is because of its kinda high polyester percentage (I can't wear poly for some reason.. ) so for the next run if at all possible.. think of me when picking the supplier and have 100% cotton available ;) Can't wait to read Tress, am still waiting for my physical copy with impatience!! After this review I am that much more excited!
ОтветитьI am giving this video a 👍 as I just started watching it, just because I laughed very hard as Daniel realized he had to buy the book. Hahahaha
ОтветитьTress is one of my favorite books ever. This type of story is right up my alley and how it was told is delightful
ОтветитьI can tell by the thumbnail that you hated it, so sad. Rare miss.
ОтветитьThe only thing that I didn't like (and only because I'd forget Hoid is literally telling someone the story from Tree's point of view as much as he could) was when he'd say something he did sometimes and I'd forget he was literally right there for a moment.
ОтветитьAs a fellow fan of both the Cosmere and One Piece I also advocate for more fanbase crossover. If you've got the commitment to be caught up in either one of these you know the payoff is worth it. Also I can't stop imagining a meeting between Hoid and the whole strawhat crew. It would be fantastic.
ОтветитьThis comment sections is wholesome AF. ❤ I’m a huge Sanderson fan and one piece fan so I am already diving into the book as I write this. I am so excited for a rollercoaster. There is nothing that gets me more juiced now than an awesome new Sanderson release.
ОтветитьHmmm.... the one thing I just can't get over is Sandersons style. I have failed to finish too many of his books. So this comparison to Disc world.... let's just say i'm pressing X to doubt so hard, I now have a hole between Z & C on my keyboard
ОтветитьOh maaaan I'm watching these positive review videos, reading the equally positive comments, and feeling bummed out that I didn't like it. Am I just a callous person who can't appeceate the whimsical vibes? Maybe. I think because I went in completely blind I didn't expect that it might not strictly be adult fantasy, and it was just really not for me. I'm happy to see so many people loving it, especially because the postscript was just so damn sweet. I'll just have to try the next one and hope for the best.
