I just finished Words of Radiance. The last 150 pages is a nonstop action packed twisting joy to plow through. I couldn’t tear myself away. When Syl finally came back and Kaladin hits his full potential while Dalinar and Andolin are fighting Szeth was magic. I had waited for 2 books for a shard blade to turn into a spear lol. I cheered at that.

Sanderson is a master of his craft. What an amazing story and book. Both this book and Way of Kings blew away my expectations of what a fantasy book could be. Wow.

Kaladin, Dalinar, and Andolin have become my favorite characters in any book I’ve read in a long time. I assume after a re-read they’ll be my favorite of all time.

Glad Sadeas finally got what was coming to him. Hopefully Amaram will as well. Hopefully Andolin doesn’t become a jealous assclown and destroy himself, but killing Sadeas seems to be counter to “protecting even those I hate”. Guess that’s why he’s not a Radiant.

Wait…. Was that Vasher’s sword Nightblood from Warbreaker introduced at the end of Words of Radiance and given to Szeth?

Dalinar is my favorite. Alot of people rate Oathbringer behind WoK and WoR. Oathbringer is Dalinar's book in the series like WoK was Kaladin's. Imo, the Sanderlanche in OB is just as good as the one in WoR if not better.
