Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson
5.0
WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MASSIVE SPOILERS:
So I need to redact my previous statement about Warbreaker. This is actually my favorite Sanderson book, no contest. This book made me really like Kaladin, far more than I expected. He has so many good character moments, such as when he defends Dalinar and his family from Szeth. And who can forget when he goes to defend Dalinar's sons in combat. This shows that even though he despises Lighteyes, he slowly starts to trust at least some of them. And who could forget, the scene where he becomes the very thing he hates, a Lighteyes. Dalinar has some fantastic growth in terms of learning to trust Kaladin. When he gave Amaram, the guy who sold Kaladin into slavery and stole his Shardblade, and made him the leader of the Knights Radiant. And when Dalinar has an Aquaman from Justice League (the Bruce Timm show) moment, making Amaran give Kaladin his Shardblade back. Weirdly enough, it was Shallan, my favorite character's story that I found the least interesting. It's still very interesting, having her grow more confident. I'm quite ready to start Edgedancer and see where the story goes from here, read it now!
