I can't describe how I feel after that chapter, so cruel, so intense, so awesome to imagine. I suffered the whole thing with Kaladin. This book is amazing

⚠️Mistborn era 1 spoilers⚠️

I just want to take a moment to appreciate how much Brandon has grown as an author. That weird love triangle between Elend Vin and Zane was executed so poorly I can only loosely call it a triangle. I straight up viewed Zane as like Vin’s evil conscience and nothing else 😅 I understood what Brandon was trying to do with that and he executed what all love triangles are supposed to: reflect the two sides of the person in the middle. But it absolutely did not accomplish that through romance by ANY stretch of the imagination 😂😂😂 But here I am only halfway through the Stormlight Archives (on Oathbringer) and I’m foaming at the mouth about Kaladin Shallan and Adolin 😅 Frankly I think they’d be an AMAZING polycule and my husband wishes I’d shut up about it 🤪 I yearn for Shakadolin for purely romantic reasons 😭😭😭

I’m halfway through The Way of Kings and I can’t seem to find enough time in the day to read all I want to read. If I did, I’d be at it 24/7.

ch. 5 The Way of Kings spoilers Am I missing something?

0 Upvotes

I’m starting Way of Kings right and for some reason I just can’t seem to get into it? Can someone tell me if/when it gets good, or what to look out for (obv avoiding spoilers). The first Sanderson book I picked up was Final Empire, and in the month since then I’ve gone through both Mistborn eras, secret history, Tress, and Warbreaker. In all of those books, save maybe Tress, I got hooked pretty quickly. Obviously Mistborn and its associated work is all pretty incredible, so I figured I would indulge in Sando’s other flagship series. I just finished Warbreaker (as I was recommended to prior to starting Stormlight Archives), and I absolutely loved that book. It, like the Mistborn series, got me hooked almost instantly, and of course finished well. The thing with WoK however, is that I feel overwhelmed and not super entertained. There was a prelude, and then a prologue, and still each page feels like it’s introducing a million new concepts, people and creatures, while I’m still trying to catch up. In the 5 or so chapters I’ve read so far (around 100ish pages) I haven’t really had a reason to keep going, other than pure intrigue as to why people say Stormlight is so good. I know I haven’t made it super far, considering the book is a thousand pages, but every page I read it feels more and more like I’m missing a book or novella that should’ve came before this, and I get even more confused. The most interesting thing so far I guess is Kaladin’s character, but even with him it feels like I’m missing a lot. Idk man, it just feels like there are a bunch of things being thrown at me, and none of it really makes sense. At least in the other books I had a few core ideas to build on and then it expanded from there. In this it feels like I’m constantly getting introduced to new things that serve no purpose 2 or 3 pages later

TLDR: when does WoK/StormlighT Archive pick up, and what should I expect out of it?

Wind and Truth spoilers **Spoilers Wind and Truth** Ch. 20 question Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Okay so I have a question. In wind and truth I'm reading chapter 20 in the middle of it and it just struck me so I had to ask or I had to put this post in here because I had to ask. Don't put any spoilers I'll read it up later but don't put any spoilers just give me knowing looks. LMAO

The only reason that they're having a trouble is because the new odium is using a loophole etc etc but it's an Alethi law loophole. My question is why are they using a lefty law? The reason I ask, is because witness was made Dalinar is not the king of Alice car, he's the king of Urithiru. So shouldn't it be just his personal or his kingdom's law that applies? Why is Alethi being used? I think that's going to be a big plot point. Or just tell me I'm stupid or whatever LOL

Was watching a play through of the new Deadlock character, Violet, and couldn’t help but think of how Lift-coded she is.

No Spoilers Custom Glyph for my Car

I have my first project car in 8 years, I've named him essentially Sure Blood. "KaKuChi".

I did this by translating it to Japanese, using the words "Certain" and "Blood". Its a japanese car, This is the glyph im thinking. Plus I ran it through an AI to give it a more Caligraphy style. I would post this too if permited as I am no artist.

I like it was able to get a "Horse like" look without being to obvious.
