A fun little side story in the Stormlight Archive, Edgedancer had more heart than I originally remembered. 

In my first read through Stormlight - I tore through the series at a breakneck pace, and I came in with an attitude that made Edgedancer seemed almost like homework I needed to complete before rolling onto the next of the main series. 

This time, however, I found it much more heartfelt and thoughtful than I remembered. Lift, the main character, had more nuance than I thought and the book set up far more than I remembered. 

Overall, I enjoyed the novella much more this time around, and had fun with the myriad set ups and references found within!
