Review: ‘Words of Radiance’ by Brandon Sanderson

‘Words of Radiance’ is the second book in Brandon Sanderson’s ‘Stormlight Archive’. The story starts out strong, continuing on from the first book, and then slows down to a crawl. The ending is pretty spectacular though, and definitely worth the wait.

Review: The Way of Kings Part 1 by Brandon Sanderson

‘The Way of Kings’ Part One follows a scholar, a slave and a lord in the aftermath of the assassination of the King of Alethkar. After a short prologue, the story opens to the night of the treaty signing between the Alethi and the Parshendi, and the death of the King. The fighting is fierce and tense, the world is vivid and dangerous, and the characters are believable and interesting.
