Unabridged Audiobook
Nearly the entire story was told in flashback, nothing in flashback mode ever matters. (Same with stories set in make-believe land, digital worlds, dreamscapes etc.) so nearly the entire story doesn’t matter. Kaladin is now a pussy, all the gods (with 4 names each) are crybabies, and this book is about 13 hours too long. Are there really going to be 5 more books in this series? Someone better be honest with Sanderson and tell him how bad this book was so he’ll reconsider wasting his time on 5 more.
Came to the conclusion that I don’t like BS straight forward prose, it hardly has an immersive quality. This one was bloated and could have have bren edited down 500 pages. The comedy relief is as bad as the MCU, it just doesn’t hit and often even makes fun of its own jokes as being bad. I expected a lot more from this first arc and it just simply did not deliver. It was anti climactic in every conceivable way and found myself constantly bored and struggling to complete it. I think I’m done with BS.
Half the book is talking about mental issues. The book didn’t need to be nearly this long
Amazing. Sometimes hard to follow. But, I enjoyed the book. All the characters were there from previous books and all seemed to have an ending of sorts. I did get confused during the visions or stepping into an alternate universe. The interludes well just what they were. Not sure if there is anything left for another book or not. I guess wait and see. Long 59 hours but worth it. To me anyway. Both narrators were on target. They are my favorite.
Rough and filled with eye rolls. But long and entertaining
Never has there been a book that has been more disappointing. DNF
The best one yet.
