Chapter 1

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Title: Unfamiliar Ground Possibly speaking about the new truce between Kaladin and the listeners under Leshwi and Venli? Icons: Pali Dare I hope for this to refer to Rlain’s new Truthwatcher status? Epigraph: Okay, first up we have the in-world book being titled Knights of Wind and Truth, but the Stormlight book is just the second half of that? I’m not complaining, but wasn’t the point to keep

Shallan's Sketchbook - Part I

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Looks like we’re getting Kaladin and Shallan to start with. Not gonna lie, I’m more excited for seeing Navani in Kaladin’s sections than for the man himself. On the other hand, I am stoked to find out what’s going on with Shallan’s mental balance and with Maya. Shallan’s Sketchbook Part I And we get art right away! This feels less detailed than usual. A more hurried sketch? Or an effect of her merg

Prologue

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.    Alright, we’re into the book proper, now.

Endpages and Frontmatter

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Endpages Wait a minute. Wait just a minute! What the what? This is the Nightwatcher standing by Cultivation. This is not a herald, this is one of the gods. Presumably then we have another one on the front. Surely not Odium, that does not match his description. Is this honor? Is this Tanavast? Checking the illustration list, yes to both. Honor and Cultivation are accompanied here by Talenel and Battah.

The Cover

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.    I discovered when reviewing my previous blog that the links I created at the time to the artwork hosted on Brandon’s site are now broken. Dragonsteel continues to host the artwork from the books, but I don’t have confidence in those addresses remaining static, so I’ll refrain from linking the official art and simply trust that you have a hard copy to reference or can find it online.

Pre-reading commentary

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Index post here. (No spoilers for Winds and Truth this post, but the rest of the cosmere is fair game.) This post is for my expectations and predictions. Got to get these etched in metal before I’m tainted with anything like actual content. First, I will note that unlike the other Stormlight books, I’ve only read Rhythm once so far. I ran out of time for a true reread, and when I tried to go through the audiobook I had to quit several chapt
