What does "&c" mean? It's an old-fashioned abbreviation for et cetera.

Both sides obviously have their merrit. I can see how mistborn would appeal to a wider fantasy audience, but I came at the cosmere looking to explore magical systems. Elantris and Warbreaker scratch that itch very well, though they can definitely be overwhelming for someone new to fantasy in general. It's hard enough to sell anyone on long format books these days without having soft prerequisites on top of it all.
