Wish there was a glossary or something with a names of people and places and how to say them. I think it would make the reading experience easier and more enjoyable for a wider audience.

As usual with any Sanderson book: epic world building, epic character detail, epic plot points and epic writing.
I give a 4 star because there was some short sections that paced really slow for me and, had I been physically reading, I would have possibly given up. I'm glad I didn't though because this is a fantastic book!

There are LOTS of characters which can also get confusing especially with the interludes - which honestly were my least favorite parts. Additionally I didn't care about Kaladin's childhood stuff.
But overall the main and even secondary characters are incredibly diverse and interesting. The focus is less on their growth (there is some here and there) and more on their interpersonal dynamics. And once certain storyline finally overlap - amazing.
The pacing is overall pretty good especially for a book of this size. The action and politics are intriguing and the climax is fantastic and satisfying.
Can't wait for the next one.
