But that's okay, because I'm enjoying the ride.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094675116398769415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354250.post-12103468003815927982014-09-20T23:53:00.498-05:002014-09-20T23:53:00.498-05:00I've found Brandon Sanderson books are like th...I've found Brandon Sanderson books are like that for me too but I thought The Way of Kings would have been even better if it had been edited down a bit. While I really did enjoy it I thought that the Kaladin chapters dragged at times, but it's such an original series and universe I powered through it. On that note, I don't know if you've read it yet but I thought that The Emperor's Soul was excellent. It's a short book but I thought it his best.Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18345203630732950224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354250.post-59845517116165010402014-09-15T07:08:39.919-05:002014-09-15T07:08:39.919-05:00Once you start reading it, Words of Radiance isn&#...Once you start reading it, Words of Radiance isn't so bad. The further I got, the more I wanted to keep reading - and each time I was disappointed when I *had* to stop reading for whatever reason.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094675116398769415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354250.post-8492502568721876202014-09-15T02:18:31.557-05:002014-09-15T02:18:31.557-05:00I've had Words of Radiance sitting in my to-re...I've had Words of Radiance sitting in my to-read pile for a couple of months now but have been putting off digging into it for one reason or another but really just because it's such a huge tome and it's almost intimidating it's so large. I know I'm going to enjoy it but starting it seems to be the problem so far. Once I finish the book I'm reading now I think it's time to crack this one open, especially with how much I enjoyed The Way of Kings.Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18345203630732950224noreply@blogger.com
