Jim's Review
🐛
One thousand and seven pages, and not one to regret. Sanderson's magic system is the most creative thing since sliced bread, and his world-building makes most fantasy authors look like amateurs. Kaladin's journey from broken slave to leader is genuinely inspiring. The climax moves fast enough to leave scorch marks on the pages. Fair warning: you WILL need to read the rest of the Stormlight Archive. Five worms — absolutely epic.
