The '''~~Cosmere~~cosmere''' is the universe in which ~~all~~several of [[Brandon Sanderson]]'s epic fantasy books take place. ~~Concepts currently associated with the cosmere are [[Shard]]s, [[Adonalsium]], and the three realm structure, called [[Realmatic Theory]].~~ == Overview == ~~== Books and Series in the Cosmere ==~~ As the cosmere implies a simultaneaous existence of the ten [[Shardworld]]s (planets with mentionable Shardic Influence), cosmere books are connected by an over-aching story. ~~Here is a list of all known books or series that exist in the cosmere--that is, they are [[Shardworld]]s.~~ ~~Some unpublished novels are indeed Shardworlds.~~ Once there was the mysterious power [[Adonalsium]], whose true characteristic is still unknown. Due to unrevealed happenings in the cosmere the [[Shattering]] took place, which splintered Adonalsium in - suggested{{ref\|b\|twok\|e\|11}} - sixteen [[Shard]]s each one of them holding a part of the original power of Adonalsium. They then inhabited the ten [[Shardworld]]s across the Cosmere inter alia being responsible for the several magic systems on each planet. ~~[[Brandon Sanderson\|Brandon]] has stated that there are ten core Shardworlds where the main cosmere cycle will be told.{{ref\|?\|718\|8\|Tell me something new about the Cosmere.}}~~ ~~All ten of these planets contain significant Shardic Influence.~~ In addition to ~~these core~~the ten core worlds, there are also untold number of other inhabited worlds in the cosmere, with either no Shardic Influence, or only a Splinter of a Shard. While the cosmere has the same structure as our universe, with galaxies, solar systems, and the like, all of the Shards and Shardworlds are located within the same compact dwarf galaxy, so there are much fewer stars and solar systems than in our own.{{cite}} [[Elantris (book)\|Elantris]]▼ Note that there is no need to know anything of the Cosmere to enjoy the Cosmere books and series separately, since its story is told in background. [[Mistborn series]] == Other Relations == The structue of the Cosmere is explained by the [[Realmatic Theory]]. The character [[Hoid]] and the organization [[Seventeenth Shard]] are speculated to be integral part of the Cosmere's narrative beside the story of the [[Shard]]s and [[Shardholder]]s. == Planets == Up until now, six of confirmed ten planets of the main story cycle are known{{ref\|?\|718\|8\|Tell me something new about the Cosmere.}} and connected to published and announced books. === [[Nalthis]] === Related Shards: [[Endowment]] Related books: [[Warbreaker]] [[Nightblood]] (announced) [[Stormlight Archive]] [[The Silence Divine]]▼ === [[Roshar]] === [[Dragonsteel]]▼ Related Shards: [[White Sand]]▼ [[~~Hoid~~Honor]]▼ [[Cultivation]] [[Odium]] Related books: [[The Way of Kings]] [[The Book of Endless Pages]] (announced) === [[Sel]] === Related Shards: [[Devotion]] [[Dominion]] Related books: ▲[[~~Elantris (book)\|~~Elantris]] [[The Emperor's Soul]] === [[Scadrial]] === ~~== Entities associated with the Cosmere at large ==~~ Related Shards: ▲[[Hoid]] [[~~Seventeenth Shard~~Preservation]] [[~~Adonalsium~~Ruin]] Related books: ▲[[The ~~Silence~~Final ~~Divine~~Empire]] [[The Well of Ascension]] [[The Hero of Ages]] [[The Alloy of Law]] [[The Shadow of Self]] (announced) === [[Taldain]] === Related Shards: [[Bavadin]]{{ref\|?\|622\|78\|Will we see Bavadin?}} Related books: ▲[[White Sand]] (announced) === [[Yolen]] === Related Shards: unknown Related books: ▲*[[Dragonsteel]] (announced) == Notes ==
