README.md

cosmere-books

Scripts to generate books from the Cosmere using various public sources. Currently supports the following books:

  1. Oathbringer (Serialized till Chapter 32)
  2. Way of Kings Reread

For obvious reasons, the converted ebooks are not part of this repo. You must download and run the script on your own machine to generate the copies.

The code for this is mostly adapted from hoshruba.

You can download sample files (Lorem Ipsum) from http://ge.tt/8R61oXm2 to see a sample of how the generated files look.

Oathbringer

Tor.com is publishing Oathbringer in serialized form till Chapter 32. This script downloads all of these posts and converts them into a publishable format, including epub, mobi, pdf and html. You can find the tor.com announcement at https://www.tor.com/2017/08/15/brandon-sanderson-oathbringer-serialization-announcement/

Way of Kings Reread

Join Michael Pye (aka The Mad Hatter) and Carl Engle-Laird as they dive into the details of Sanderson’s complex new world of Roshar. Find out more at https://www.tor.com/features/series/the-way-of-kings-reread-on-torcom/

Requirements

  • Ruby

  • Nokogiri gem installed (gem install nokogiri)

  • (mobi only): ebook-convert (from calibre) available to generate the mobi file

  • Edit the last line in setup.rb to :epub / :mobi, :pdf to only trigger the specific builds
