Rating:
A year into the new war, Navani Kholin's scientific research may hold the key to turning the tide. Meanwhile Kaladin struggles with the weight of command, and the enemies prepare a bold operation targeting the ancient tower of Urithiru itself. An introspective instalment that digs deep into the nature of the Radiants' magic and the psychology of its lead characters.
I enjoyed Rhythm of War, but I do feel like it went on a little too long. Maybe it's because I've done these 4 books back-to-back and I'm getting a little tired of the story, but I felt like this one was hard work.
Enjoyable, but hard work. Throughout the book I thought that Sanderson wasted time developing storylines and characters that he didn't necessarily need to, but toward the end of the book it - in true Sanderson fashion - it all came together and made sense.
Having said that, I still think it dragged on for longer than necessary. Still though, it was a great read and I'm looking forward to the 5th book coming out. But for now I'm going to enjoy a break from Kaladin and his pals.
