If you are reading Mistborn with the intention of continuing on to Sanderson's other Cosmere works afterwards, I would highly suggest reading Mistborn: Secret History after you finish The Hero of Ages. I like to say it's like a "Nick Fury showing up in the post-credits scene of Iron Man" moment, where you really first get a glimpse of how the various different stories and series are connected.
Wait. I don't have any meta knowledge about Sanderson's work, are you saying the Mistborn series and the Stormlight Archives have a connection to each other? How exciting!
Super small suggestion, but check out elantris and warbreaker also by brandy sandy before you drip into stormlight archive or secret history. They're not required by any means to enjoy any of the stories here, but they definitely clue you in to a few more Easter eggs than you'd notice otherwise. Iirc, both of those books are available through his website or by emailing his team at no charge. Could be old info but both the books are entirely worth their price anyways imo
This is a great suggestion. Elantris can take a second to get into but it’s great.
