Even better the second time around! Kaladin and Adolin my be my favorites, but Shallan was the MVP this time. She's so much more interesting on a second run through. This book is my favorite.

The trio coming together, The Duel, I Am A Stick, Renarin training with his plate, meeting Zahael... But what was Jasnah doing the whole time in Shadesmar? When did Zahael get here and where did he lose Nightblood? How did Nin/Nale get Nightblood?

IT'S ALL SO GOOD.
