Hello /lit/, while reading Way of Kings by Sanderson, I became very interested in the Honor Codes within the book. For anyone who didn't read it, it is some guidelines/passages by which a man should act.

for example: do not do to others as you would not do to yourself, etc.

I am looking for a book that has passages like that, a Codes of Honor book if you will.

anyone know anything of the sort?

Thanks

We can't go less than 2 days without a Sanderson thread.

Why was this book pretty decent but the rest of his work such utter crap?

Very nice! I will definetly look into those two links and see if I can find anything I like!

The book was/is great, I haven't finished it yet, I am at about the halfwaypoint. It's just simple to read but engaging and makes you keep wanting to find out what's going to happen next

>yfw Kal is gonna have 2 flashback books instead of one
Good thing, too.
He and was the best part of the book, and he easily has the best single moment.

so far already it's been a blat to read. The only bit's that bore a bit are when it's about shallan or the childhood stories, I mean they flesh out the character, but reading adult kal and dalinar stuff is just amazing

Maybe we should do a fantasy general, then there wouldn't be three to five small fantasy threads lingering around.

What, the bit when he leaps the chasm?
That was pretty cool.

>shallan
Her story improves a large amount near the end.
Also, you better learn to like her.
You notice how this books flashbacks are about Kaladin?
The next one is about her.

Yeah, nothing would improve my day than a constant thread full of people complaining or praising the same 5 authors 24/7.

Because his writing is becoming less mormon over time.
I mean, compared to his other books, WoK is scandalous.

At least they wouldn't do it in ten different threads.

Huh.
Turns out that the fucking cover synopsis for the next book spoils some very interesting things.
Fuck them.
