It's the Spook chapter talking about the Citizen. Other than that, I don't know what chapter it is. You tell us :D

Does it have a chapter bump at the beginning? (I don't have a copy of that paperback.)

(Humm. Looking at my old manuscript, the Spook chapter was chapter 14. That's an interesting chapter number to preview...though it could have been moved somewhere earlier.)

Anyway, the chapter 4 chapter bump was an important one.

Hmmmm, 'was'. Does that  signify that it is in regards to a topic that we have discussed ad naseum and is now irrelevant?

Maybe past tense is just something writers get into the habit of doing :P

And Ookla, the Spook chapter definitely didn't have a bump. I can't tell you more, because I've lent that copy of Mistborn out so much (and bought some for others) that I don't even remember who has it.

In the past he has said the chapter 4 bump is the one where we get to find out who is writing the annotations this time around.  :D :D We know its not Rashek, but other than that...  :D  :D

I said "was" because it was a very old draft and Brandon could have changed things and moved chapters/bumps around.

The chapter begins with the line "SPOOK FLARED TIN." and yes it was in all caps. There was no bump. Cool chapter though.

Also Rhuan if we all wanted to create threads with no relevance and try to be funny we would have a board full of crap. There are other parts of the forum where you can post things like this, like maybe i dunno "Everything Else" or "Rants and Stuff".

The question is how many people clicked it :P

Those of you saying this was the wrong board for this just don't understand what a rickroll is.

See, now that's not really fair. Because I checked where the link was going and saw that it was youtube. Then I clicked it so I could see what horrors you had set us up for.

How do we know it's not Rashek, I was pretty sure it was Rashek, what have I missed?

lol that was just me acting confident for my bet with Andrew the Great. He believes they ARE written by Rashek, and I believe they ARENT, and whoever loses the bet has to wear the other's choice of a profile pic for a week.

Oh, I get it.
And by the way Ookla, I think the reason Brandon chose the Spook chapter, is because it doesn't really give any of book 2's plotline away.  All you learn is that Spook survives until book three.  If he had put any of the sample chapters that we have read so far from hero of ages, there would have been spoilers (Ruin free, Elend the Mistborn, the TenSoon thing).

Two things. First, Brandon said that the bump in the prologue of book 1 explains the whole series, so I wouldn't rule out something minor in spooks chapter having huge implications. Second, it does mention that Elend is collecting cities, so we know he's not just hunkering down in Luthadel.

Just to tell you guys, the Spook chapter is 14 and there is a nice Bump in it in the book.
