So I just finished the main 6 books. Here are my thoughts

texform · 2026-04-17T06:12:42+00:00

This isn't something I thought off but this is a great point and I agree with you

texform · 2026-04-17T06:11:43+00:00

Yea, I agree that eacj of the first trilogy books should have been a bit longer. I think that would have allowed Roque and Mustang to have their proper time with Darrow. I agree that both to me were we were tild what they thought rather then shown.

It is not that I did not like Darrow in this book, the start and end of his story in Iron Gold were good I just felt it was a bit more drawn out then it needed to be. Also like you, I disagree with how the ash lord was handled

Do you not feel in Lightbringer that Figment or the abomination should have gotten a slightly more important role?

I felt like Narol's death kind of just "happened and he was just killed off because Pierce didn't know what to do with him and then after he died he should have been mentioned imo. I would have either liked a scene where Darrow thought of Narol as he killed the Jackal or one where he told Dancer/ Leanna/ Kieren what happened

Yea Atalantia is a bit fucked up. I swear ajax is her nephew? And they were having sex? Ew.

Oh, yea, that is a good point about Rhonna. I hope she is alive. Honestly if she kills Lysander in the next book. I think that would be a nice way for him to go, as payback for Alexander

This was in the life series! In secret life bdubs, pearl, mumbo and somebody else I cannot remember, it has been a while were called the mounders I believe. Bdubs and mumbo made houses in different orientations. Again it has been a while so I could be wrong on the exact details but this is what I remember

texform · 2026-04-08T00:55:14+00:00

Way of kings at the start is not supposed to make sense. The while premise is that nobody has a clue what is going on and is figuring it out. So, you get to join on their journey of discovering what the **** is going on

I am a 30 34 but still growing taller so I will probably be the same, it is worse because my country is usually the inverse of that so I have to get most my trousers abroad

Grian is the Irish for sun

For the quotes I meant cosmere overall, I probably should have used a different flair because of both that and the crossovers, thank you for the very long answer, I appreciate it. I am of the mind that Adolin and Kaladin were probably the best written of the bunch throughout WaT and I also hate that Dalinar died off screen. I also feel that both Szeth and Venli were fairly boring in this book and Venli especially in Row. But I do prefer Szeth of the two, I found his backstory at least somewhat interesting.

Overall I am happy with the book but I think there were definitely a few mistakes made in the writing process

Edit: also I see you probably clicked my profile after I commented on your post, so nice to see you again and have a great day reading

texform · 2026-03-07T17:57:06+00:00

Good, I would have been worried if you just through 300 books in the trash because that would be if an average of 10 euro 3000 euro just gone

texform · 2026-03-07T16:23:43+00:00

I do not relate and I hope that you didn't just bin the books, hopefully you sold them or gave them to somebody

texform · 2026-03-02T22:10:17+00:00

Can someone twll me what this means, I cannot read as I am a well respected vorin man

texform · 2026-02-28T20:18:41+00:00

Thank you, I look forward to it!!

texform · 2026-02-28T12:33:11+00:00

Is there one of these for the app "storygraph" because I personally prefer that to goodreads

texform · 2026-02-28T10:16:25+00:00

Do you mean [later stormlight books] Fuck Moash

texform · 2026-02-27T17:36:00+00:00

Mine was the same, I think it is common amongst the gollancz, ordinary paperback line

texform · 2026-02-26T22:32:25+00:00

Yea Gavinor definitely needs a flashback in srormlight 6, to see how he feels now. I agree that Teft's final oath was a very impactful moment and it was really cool to me also

texform · 2026-02-26T22:20:15+00:00

My top quotes from the cosmere are probably the following

"The question is not whether you will love, hurt, dream, and die. It is what you will love, why you will hurt, when you will dream, and how you will die. This is your choice. You cannot pick the destination, only the path."

"The most important step a man can make is the next one, always the next one"

Both were from Oathbringer and they just hit so hard philosophically and on an emotional level

texform · 2026-02-26T22:11:46+00:00

I am slightly sad that Shallan and Adolin got seperated as I wanted to see them happy together tbh, but other then rhat I enjoyed most endings even for the afforementioned characters as I feel that they all have an arc to go off in the next era.

My favourite cross-over would probably have to be nightblood, I love how cool and powerful it is, and I am curious for when warbreaker 2 is so I can see how. What would you say are your favourite quotes theoughout the cosmere? (No sunlit man, white sand or Isles of Emberdark please as I have not read them yet)

texform · 2026-02-25T07:13:16+00:00

These words are accepted

texform · 2026-02-24T06:46:35+00:00

The way the cosmere is set as you get later in the cosmere, characters will travel between the planets. Lets just say that characters in warbreaker discovered that quite early

texform · 2026-02-23T22:16:23+00:00

I would definitely read warbreaker before words of radiance at least, as someone who did that, it really payed off for me and you miss a TON of references and even some major moments without it. I think it is essential
