Zelly Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 After calming down from having my brain turned inside out from the end game stuff of this novella, I remembered stuff I liked from earlier in the story. 1) Rysn and Lopen bonding. Discussions about life with a physical disability. The joy of Rysn having a network of women who understand her life situation. Brandon's really good at taking a complete fantasy realm and still making it relatable to our lives. 2) Lopen + Cord.........well maybe. Cord seemed less than interested. 3) Huio being so intelligent and well spoken when speaking Herdazian. 2
Rushu42 she/her Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 The characters in Dawnshard were excellent to a man, in my opinion. I loved learning about Huio's personality, and I agree that Rysn's inner dialogue about her disability was a nice piece of representation. Getting so many different viewpoints in one story just deepened it so much. And (as you might be able to tell from my username) I was a fan of Rushu when she was just a background character - I loved seeing more. I know everyone's really excited about all the Cosmere lore, which I agree is awesome, but my favorite part of it was just how realistic the characters felt. 1
