I don't remember where, but I heard that Warbreaker was one of the worst Cosmere novels. And after reading it? I must respectfully disagree.

Guess what I'm reviewing next week. Go on. Guess. You'll never get it. Up until recently, Warbreaker was one of the last gaps in my knowledge of Sanderson's Cosmere.

More Colors!

At least until we get some news about Book 5. Or my coworkers get to book 3. Whichever happens first.… Continue reading Words of Radiance (By the Cover): A Promised Showdown
