Easily the best book I read in 2021, and on its way to being my favorite series of all time. This was so EPIC in every aspect. Amazing world-building, fantastic character works, magic system, history, creatures, lore, storyline, and character relationships. I am in awe of Brandon Sanderson's storytelling, and while his writing is not the most beautiful or poetic, it is still captivating. Considering my love for his other works, this shouldn't come as a surprise that this book would make me fall hard. 

P.s. Kaladin and Adolin, I will protect with my life and I am their protector
