It‘s been a long time since I‘ve read Sanderson, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one, and have begun the next in the series. The world that he creates is fascinating, the characters are rich, and the politics appropriately murky.

As the wit says to Kaladin:

“The purpose of the storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.”

One word, EPIC!
The number of times, my scalp tingled with new revelations as the story progresses, can‘t even tell. The events describing each character‘s closing on on discovering their destinies my eyes 👀 just popped out each time that happened. This book overwhelmed me. Above all, this book is not just a fantasy, it‘s a philosophy, it‘s a religion. M not surprised that it has developed such a cult. 👇

BookmarkTavern What a great review! 5y
BGam And OH MY KALADIN!!!! I have never come across any greater super hero so well written about. The way his character develops from a 15 year old to a slave to a bridge man to an ultimate Hero.. was so heart wrenching at some moments but all that was made up for in the end when his victories are described in such a heroic way that I just wanted to stand and start jumping about clapping my hands!!! Awesome story.. can‘t wait to start part 2. 5y
BGam @ozma.of.oz thank you 😊 5y
vivastory Fantastic review 👏 I also recently read this & can't wait to dive into book 2. #bridge4 5y

This is a book about Shardbearers wielding 6 foot swords that cut souls, Surgebinders who craft illusions and defy gravity, and the coming of the world-shattering Everstorm.

It is also a book about broken people who must figure out how to do the right thing and what that even means in a messy world.

1000+ pages of that either sounds awesome to you or it doesn‘t. If so, seek out The Stormlight Archive.

“Life before death, Radiant.”

Linsy 👏👏👏 Love this series! 6y
vivastory Better than book 1? 6y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk @vivastory It sounds insane to say this about a book that long, but so much of The Way of Kings was set-up and this book is one mind-blowing pay-off after another. Also here‘s a great article about the interconnectedness of his books: https://www.tor.com/2017/10/09/understanding-brandon-sandersons-cosmere/ 6y
vivastory I read that article when Oathbringer was released. I hate reading unfinished series, but I will definitely be making an exception for this one. I've heard Oathbringer is the best book he's written. 6y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk @vivastory I‘decided to tackle these giants one a year so that will give him time to keep putting them out! But I do want to get into his other Cosmere stuff though. Later this year I might try 6y

It‘s a little embarrassing how excited I got when I saw this chapter title. Old friends!

“‘Bridge Four was your prison,‘ Kaladin protested.
‘Doesn‘t matter,‘ Skar said. ‘We‘re Bridge Four.‘”
