I hear a lot of grumbling about the pace but ?? truthfully I don't see why. There is always something going on, regardless of whichever 3 of the POV's you're reading. I do wish however the switching between them would have been more consistent. We see Shallan in pt. 1 and then ZERO of her in pt. two, where we are switching back and forth between two characters in the same location? This did make the world feel a bit small for me, the scale of the first book was not as large as I had anticipated, but I am sure that will change as the series continues. Overall I thought that this was really great and I am excited to read Words of Radiance!
