Lots of books, here's a way to enjoy them! Just my suggestion, I found this to be a great way to get into the overall Cosmere.

Cosmere

1. Mistborn Era 1
   1. The Final Empire
   2. The Well of Ascension
   3. The Hero of Ages
2. Elantris (This is one of his first books, it has a noticabley different style, but the story is fun and has some Cosmere stuff for later)
3. The Emporer's Soul: Elantris Novella
4. Stormlight Archive #1 : The Way of Kings
5. Warbreaker
6. Stormlight Archive #2: Words of Radiance
7. Sixth of Dust - Cosmere novella, doesn't really need to be read in any order
8. Mistborn Era #2
   1. The Alloy of Law
   2. Shadows of Self
   3. Bands of Mourning
   4. The Last Metal
9. Secret History - This has huge spoilers across the Cosmere, but you've now been prepped with this guide!
10. Edgedancer - Stormlight Novella
11. Stormlight Archive #3: Oathbringer
12. Dawnshard - Stormlight Novella
13. Stormlight Archive #4: Rhythm of War
14. Tress of the Emerald Sea
15. Yumi and the Nightmare Painter
