Anyone else struggle with Oathbringer? I loved the first two, and Way of Kings may be one of my favorite books of all time, but I just cannot get into this one like I did the first two. I'm about 600 pages in, so hopefully it picks up soon

Oathbringer changes the setting drastically away from the Shattered Plains, which is kind of jarring.

Also there is that loooooooooonnnnnnnnnggggggggggg part two with a lot of focus on Bridge 4 members not named Kal that takes a lot of time.

But the last part of the Book is worth it IMO.

It grabbed me pretty strongly. I didn't have that feeling at any point, I don't think. The only part that may have taken too long was the espionage operation, but even then, it made sense why he took the time he did with it.

While I'm not sure it's as good as Way of Kings, it was excellent. I finished the audiobook in like 4 days, so I definitely marathoned through it.

Yea I didn't get hooked early like I did with the first two, but the back half of the book was fantastic
