3.5

A massive but enjoyable continuation of The Stormlight Archive -- an epic series of slow but meaningful reveals as to how Sanderson's world works, and his characters' places in it.  You would think you'd tire of a story that ends here at over a thousand pages, but Sanderson's writing is compelling, purposeful, and pleasant engaging.  I'll take a break before volume three but am happy to continue on this strange and mysterious adventure.
