I was unduly harsh on this book on the first attempt but that's only because I rate Sanderson at his best so highly. It's totally fine, if you want to turn the brain off and enjoy a very YA action story.

This book has highlighted something I hadn't considered though, and that is to be worried about the Cosmere mythos becoming too involved in the Stormlight Archive. I desperately hope Sanderson manages to keep the Stormlight Archive as its own semi-standalone series, full of connections to the wider universe but you don't need to know any of those other books to follow whats happening.

I don't even know if it's possible, but a boy can dream.
