I have come to realize I just hate this author’s books. I really wanted to like this series—I mean, I even forced myself to get to book 3 because reviews kept saying there is pay off. But, WHERE??? Everything I’ve read from this author doesn’t sit right with me. Something feels really off about how he presents stories and characters.

With their whopping page counts, the Stormlight archive books can definitely be intimidating and daunting to read. While I did find myself feeling that prior and during my reading of this book, this book has become one of my favorites. This book made me laugh, cheer, and cry. Dalinar’s character and his story has got to be one of the best journeys in fantasy. I grew to love each and (almost) every character in this series. With each book the world of Roshar gets deeper and deeper and more complex, but it always keeps you interested. Recommend to all fantasy fans.

Action packed and awesome lore.

This series just keeps picking up steam. As soon as one mystery is cleared another one pops up. The characters remain engaging and interesting. Definitely a landmark in the world of epic fantasy.

So much time spent talking about Kaladin just to end up surpassed by other characters I thought he was going to end up being the strongest or something really special, nope. Kinda like what happened with Jon snow from GoT. They talked about his bloodline then at the end he ends up being nothing so why even waste so much time talking about him. The going back in time parts were so boring I almost quit reading the book, instead I just skipped ahead whenever it started talking about the past. Then theres the jumping around between characters every other page, i dont know how I managed to finish the book. The first two books were really good but this one was boring and disappointing i wont be reading the next one, im out.

I loved this book so much! It’s amazing! Totally recommend! I especially love the world building and characters. (Kaladin and Lift are my favorites. 😁)

I am love this series and have absolutely devoured every one of the books…until this one. I’m not sure if the setting was the problem, the focus on the ever-indecisive King as the main character, or just fatigue from reading nearly 4500 pages of content. Either way, this one didn’t hold up as well for me.

Amazing epic.

These books just get better and better as I continue to read. Simply mind blowing

This book weaves together sanderson’s classic style with a whole new level of twists and turns that will amaze the reader. Highly recommend.
