This book is a bop and a half, and while it took me nearly 2 months to finish it was worth every second. So many new questions, so many new characters, and Lift! Gotta love Tight Butt, too. 4.5 stars

This was probably my least favorite of the Stormlight Archives books so far. That said, a lot of that has to do with my preference not being in reading battle scenes and there is a lot of that here. There are definitely compelling and interesting story lines that for me kind of carried it. 

and lets be real I wasn't a super fan of most of the male primary character's motivation being the result of his late wife's pain- there is more to it than that, admittedly, it just felt like the bulk of it was the result of Evi's death.

This series continues to feel more epic with every instalment. I really enjoy the descriptions of the various surges, particularly the flying battles with

Kaladin/Szeth

. The characters are some of my favourites I’ve read, including their well developed flaws.

While I had started to suspect, the reveal that the humans are the Voidbringers was very impactful, as was Odium’s growing role as a looming figure of destruction.

While the start of the book is a bit slow to reach the parts that feel important to the story, the later parts drive forwards in a way that’s hard to put down.

Another excellent story, I do wish it was a tad shorter, like maybe 200 pages less, otherwise, very keen to see how the rest of this story unfolds.
