An interesting story that delves into some of the previous hints from the Stormlight Archives in a fun way. It has a well chosen pair of main characters, one engaging and the other funny and familiar, with a supporting cast that deepen the story. Chiri-Chiri is also great for immersion in the world due to the distinctive creature designs.

Personally, I think that the shorter story and faster pace lessen some of the emotional weight of other instalments, but I still find Rysn’s character arc fulfilling, and the handling of her disability worthwhile. Plus the focus on a less warlike mentality with a merchant works nicely for this story.

Rsyn was a fun character to follow for this little novella, I really enjoyed her pov. It definitely felt like a lot of things in this book will be important for like future future Cosmere stuff, like not even this series perhaps or like maybe the second series of Stormlight ........

Fun novella with new lore additions to the Stormlight Archives. I like Rysn and I’m glad she was the star of the show in this one. I enjoyed this more than Edgedancer!

Very excited to see how the dawnshard will be used to further the overall plot of this world, I know it's going to play a big role. It was nice to see some of the side characters get a starring role. I really liked the disability rep too
