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
