This was my first Graphic Audio read, and was definitely the way to read such a long book packed with multiple POVs, factions, and characters.
I liked that the POVs switched more frequently than in Elantris. It made it easier to care about what everyone was up to when the story circles back around to them quickly. I was genuinely surprised at the twists and turns, even though I could see how they were foreshadowed afterwards. I particularly loved Vivenna's character arc. This has a very different tone to Tress, my first Sanderson read, but going back to the beginning of his works, and I can understand why he's had such a strong fanbase for years.
