Link he/him Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 I find I have a tendency to enjoy most of all whoever is most focused on in the book. So Kaladin was by-far-and-away my favourite. But I remember when reading about Elend in book 1 of Mistborn, and then him becoming a viewpoint later on, I suddenly got a renewed interest. I find that's the same for a lot of readers. I'm looking forward to seeing Shallan's backstory, see how she ended up where she is now. I'm pretty happy. I have a friend at work who isn't looking forward to it at all. I told him it was Shallan's flashback book and he looked as if I'd just bought him a kitten and shot it. Even after I verified that we'll still get Kaladin, just no flashbacks, he was genuinely upset. It was a little funny to watch. That said, he has a rather stupid argument about female lead characters being rubbish, so I have a feeling there might be son (until now) well-hidden sexism going on. I'd love to get a flashback book from him and find out what happened there to make him hate female characters 2
