My first Brandon Sanderson book and I get it now. I understand the hype! Not at all the kind of writing style I was expecting but the conversational style really worked for this. I immediately was sucked in and became so immersed in the world. Could not tear my eyes away from the page.
Definitely got the feeling that there were some parts I would have understood better had I read other Sanderson books but these were more like little nods to previous works rather than being necessary to follow the plot of this one. A lovely standalone with, I assume, fun references for Sanderson fans.
A very interesting time to read this, as well, as it has a lot of say about art in this time of generative AI.
