Rhythm of War

Absolutely beautiful. Even with its impressive wordcount I read through this series very quickly, and that alone could stand as the testament to my enjoyment. I was introduced to this series during a time where sci-fi was my main focus, and sci-fi definitely holds a special place in my heart, but even still this fantasy series satisfied most if not all of my cravings with fiction. The escalation in this edition was fantastic and incredibly epic. There are so many larger things happening in the Cosmere, clearly, but we have seen a lot happen on Roshar.

The characters in this series are still some of the best I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing, partly due to the lovely dialogue, and partly due to the intricate world that’s been revealed. I very much look forward to the next edition of The Stormlight Archives, whenever that is finished in due time. I’m tempted to start reading some of his other works, especially the ones that take place in the same Cosmere universe, but I should probably finish some of the other books I’ve neglected before doing so. I will conclude by saying “Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination.”
