This was a different one in terms of rating for me. For 75% of the book I was thinking it would be a 3 star, but then finally a bunch of pieces all started falling together in the last quarter of the book and I could all of a sudden see where the entire series was going and I liked what I was seein...
Reading this book the second time through was so much better then the first time I read it. I remember the first time that I was bored for quite a lot of it until the end. I think because I understood more the second time, I was able to follow better. Brandon Sanderson is so detailed in this world h...
The Way of Kings ... well now, this book is kind of hard to describe. It's not an easy book to summarize, or review. I'm not even going to attempt to write a synopsis here. It's a book where a lot seems to happen, while not much seems to happen at the same time. What I mean by that is, I almost view...
This isn’t so much a review as more of a musing on this book and what I’m looking for in the series. I just finished my 2nd re-read of this book in eager anticipation for tomorrow’s release of the next book. I do love the more nuanced darker fantasy that is more common today, but sometimes I jus...
The Way of Kings is a gorgeously imagined, truly epic high-fantasy story unlike any other I have ever read before. The sheer scope of the plot, characters and mythology introduced in the beast of a book - my paperback edition tips the scale at 1258 pages (which makes it the longest book I have ever...
I've been slowly but surely making my way through all of Sanderson's books (that's the plan anyway) ever since I picked up one of his short stories, Legion. Sanderson packed so much into those 88 pages, more than some full length fantasy books out there, and it never once felt weighed down. So readi...
Finally, I can recommend this book (Dec 2013). I was always frustrated after having read this book, because I wanted to listen to the sequel. It is scheduled to be released March 2014!Read this book now and you won't have to wait as long as I did for the sequel.I love the book, I love the characters...
3.5 stars. This is a long, long book. And honestly, I think it could have been much shorter and worked. The really interesting stuff comes at the end. That said, once it got good, I was totally gripped.
Reading this one took quite a while, it's just so big. It's long, it's huge in scope, it has about a billion POV characters, it switches times, half of it is in flashback and it's got multiple magic systems going on, and it drops you straight into this world without any buildup. I'm going with a 3, ...
