I read this novella because I am still anxiously awaiting my copy of Rhythm of War to arrive. While this book isn't necessary to read before RoW, I am glad I read it because many book reviewers have said that it will give context to certain events that happen. This follows Rysn as she is sent on an expedition to a haunted island. She brings along Lopen and a few other Bridge Four members. This book mostly focuses on Rysn and Lopen. I think this book was fun and interesting, and I love Lopen as a character. He is so different from everyone else and his humor is spot on. I thoroughly appreciated the research and the work that went into writing Rysn and how she handles life without the use of her legs. I can tell that Sanderson and his team really put in the work to represent her as believable as possible. This novella was a fun, quick read and I recommend to Sanderson lovers everywhere.
