Trying to initially understand Szeth’s abilities is a little difficult despite the abilities being spelled out for you. Wasn’t a bad part at all but my only not 10/10 experience reading the book.

Sooo good

This book starts slow. Brandon Sanderson’s work usually does. Many viewpoints, dozens and dozens of proper nouns and concepts, and an unclear narrative thrust. The theme is less cohesive than his other work, the fantasy elements at once vague yet specific. But once the secrets like threads start pulling together, the tapestry taking shape, ahhh it’s as good as any of his best works.

While I recommend reading the mistborn trilogy first, the Stormlight archive really is a recommendation to all fantasy fans. Yes, the book is over 1,000 pages long - but it pays off in the end. And if you immerse yourself in the world and follow the journeys alongside the characters, you’ll find yourself wanting more.

This book is very long and takes a lot of time of works building. But it pays off at the end! It’s worth a read if you enjoy fantasy.

What a fun new world to dive into. 10/10 recommend.

One of the best books I have ever read

It good

I did not say “Great BOOK” I said Great Series”. Now, please know that I’m NOT complaining about this book. This book specifically has kind of a slow build to it but gets better and better. When you meet “The Assassin In White”, you’ll love his story. You’ll love Shallan’s, Adolin, Dalinar, Navani (I personally don’t like her but I know that many other people do and that I’m probably the weird one) and Kaladin along with all there Spren. I love all the characters except Navani and sometimes I tolerate Shallan. I just feel like my favorite MAIN character (Kaladin) has such a SLOW build in this book. The rest of the books its not like that. You’ll feel all kinds of emotions reading this book and series. Again, I’m NOT whining about the book, I just feel like Kaladin’s story could have gone a little bit quicker. One of my most fun series that I would recommend to my friends.

Awesome
