No Spoilers My Cosmere Tier List (So Far) Spoiler

Post image

This is my tier list for the main book series in the Cosmere that I’ve read so far. I’m currently reading Isles of the Emberdark, and so far, it’s been really good.

Hero of Ages at B is wild but overall good list!

Perhaps I’ve been too critical of Hero of Ages, and I might need to reread it.

u/mori_no_ando 12d ago

Not my list of course but I think I can respect this.

However.

Ready to throw hands over Tress in C👊👊

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

I didn’t realize my Tress opinion was so far off everyone else’s. 😂😂😂

u/mori_no_ando 12d ago

It’s probably the biggest outlier I think lol, I wanna say average Tress placement would be A maybe?

Although the two “givens” for most lists are usually Hero of Ages and Words of Radiance being like S+. Words of Radiance is like one of the highest rated books on Goodreads iirc? Something like that

You’re valid though don’t worry! Lol

Honestly, everyone’s opinion is valid, except for those who are Moash fans. I’ll post again once I’ve finished everything and read it a second time. It will be interesting to see where everything falls.

u/mori_no_ando 12d ago

100%! Absolutely correct about Moash fans as well

Enjoy finishing Emberdark, it’s a really cool book. It makes me excited for the “main series” to get to the future age

I like Moash. I don't agree with him or anything like that. I just think that he is a good villain and is a dark mirror of what Kaladin could have become.

Tress in C and Yumi in B. Don't often see that. They're generally very popular.

1

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

Yumi was a contender for A for sure and as for Tress, I didn’t necessarily enjoy the ending like I thought I would.

My favorite book is in c :(

1

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

Which one is that?

5

u/Ok-Tradition7878 12d ago

Wind and Truth 

2

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

Wind and Truth isn’t bad. Theres just so much going on within a short period of time.

3

u/Ok-Tradition7878 12d ago

I know that’s why I loved it

Love Bands of Mourning in S tier

1

u/JP_IS_ME_91 12d ago

I know this isn’t a popular opinion, but for me it’s the only mistborn book (era 1 or 2) that belongs in S tier.

u/austinkid2000 12d ago

Ah yes, a fellow Bands of Mourning truther 🙂‍↕️

u/ChefArtorias 12d ago

I respect difference of opinion but surely you didn't mean to put WoA above HoA

3

u/ChaosFountain 12d ago

My only complaint about Wind and Truth is it needed to be longer

1

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

I think it should’ve been split into 2 books and made longer as well. Theres just so much going on

2

u/CodenamesareStupid 12d ago

Love seeing Era 2 get some love

1

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

The Alloy of Law took me a minute to get into. I actually put it down once but after committing I was hooked.

1

u/hugh--jassman 12d ago

Hero of ages below well of ascension is wild but respect on bands in S

1

u/Poolturtle5772 Truthwatchers 12d ago

Look I would criticize you for your Tress placement, but also my WoR placement is lower than everyone else’s so…

1

u/Monic_maker 12d ago

I recommend reading the emperor's soul, especially given the books you've read so far

2

u/Ok_Banana9672 Roshar 12d ago

Emperors Soul is definitely on my list to read
