Book one of the Stormlight Archive was A LOT of info dumping, character history and background, and of course has the infamous “Sanderlanche” in the last few hundred pages.

I thoroughly enjoyed this and am looking forward to following these characters throughout the rest of the series.

Sanderson is honestly a masterclass in fantasy storytelling and writing. I can’t wait to continue making my way through the Cosmere and see how the stories all collide. 

Also, the Wit… iykyk

Wow. Brandon Sanderson never ceases to amaze me with how well he wraps up plot holes but also…doesn’t? Many times did I shed tears and look at my husband (who is caught up on the cosmere) with a gaping mouth, in shock at what I’d just read.

The world that was created in this book was so emersive and just so well executed. The characters felt complex and I really grew to love them. I cannot wait to continue with this series.

At the beginning i was confused and still am confused, just about different things. The book relly doesn't feel like a thousand pages, it reads incredibly, no part drags or seems too drawn out. Can't wait for the next part, can't imagine waiting four years for the second book. The reveals are crazy, characters amazing, magic system confusing and unique, cant wait when I'll understand it all. Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination. 🍃
