5.0

As long as this book was, I did NOT want it to end. Truly brilliant world-building and characterization. 

I’m a big fan of fantasy, and maybe I’m just saying this because I just finished and am still thinking of it through a rose-colored lens—but I can’t think of an author more talented than Brandon Sanderson after reading this book. 

Minor characters are fleshed out and given humanity, unique magic systems created and explained in a way that (mostly) makes sense, and protagonists you truly want to follow and understand. I love this book. I am IN love with Kaladin and Dalinar. Everyone should read this book.
