Rhythm of War picks up a year after the previous book in the series. I enjoyed Sanderson’s novella Dawnshard which filled in the time between Stormlight 3 and Rhythm of War, and I do like Rhythm of War but I still have a hard time getting past over-analyzing the world. On the other, Dune started far too slowly and then managed to end too quickly. Norrell by Susanna Clarke are two of my favorite books I read this year. On the one hand, Piranesi and Jonathan Strange & Mr. This year, I’ve tried to make a return to my roots in epic fantasy after becoming a snob who only read world classics and literary fiction with mixed success. Warbreaker is phenomenal ( and free!), and the Way of Kings starts off the Stormlight Archives ( Rhythm of War is the fourth book in the series) really well. The Mistborn original trilogy are some of the best fantasy books I’ve ever read. As I’ve said the other time I nitpicked his fantasy world, the Cosmere, his work got me through a lot of tough times. Before I’m overly critical of Rhythm of War, I do like Brandon Sanderson, and his work has meant a lot to me.
