My thoughts on Rhythm of War:
SpoilerSpoilers, by the way
SpoilerIn case that wasn't obvious
SpoilerThe main story:
Parts I & II:
- Oh dear. Lirin's disappointed in his son? How disappointing.
- Shallan... what the heck is going on with you?
- No Dalinar? Not for awhile? Yep... okay.
- Ooooh, more Navani! NAVANI!!
- Rock... Rock. NONONONO ROCK!!!
- Did Dalinar just fire Kaladin? Holy stormfather did this story take a weird turn...
- Ah. And flying boats! Wonderful.
- The Ghostbloods are very spooky. Mraize much mysterious.
Parts III & IV:
- Mmhmm. Adolin going on trial. I cannot stress enough how much I love these kinds of storylines!
- Some Dalinar! Finally. Also Jasnah. Cool.
- Speaking of Jasnah; what's up with her and Wit?
- Oh, it's like that? Ewwwwwwww...
- Navani doing all sorts of Cosmere stuff! Investiture, Intent, Identity... woo!
- Kaladin's having mood swings. Noice.
- Lift doesn't want to be a teenager! I feel that.
- Moash. Hello, Moash.
- Welcome back.
- I didn't expect Rlain to be such a major player...
- Venli's arc is... y'know. Kewl.
The End:
- The next Stormlight book is going to take place over 10 whole days? Wow
- *Soft crying at Eshonai's arc*
Thoughts on the Cosmere stuff:
- Chapter Headings: *mentions allomantic metals in the use of fabrials*
- Me: Mmm. Good, Brandon. Keep feeding us.
- Ialai's notes: Scadrial, Nalthis, Taldain
- Me: Oh--oh. I see. Tasty tidbits?
- Mraize: Yep. Those are planets.
- Me: So this book's like that, then?
- Mraize: And Investiture is a thing, and this is how it works, and the Shards be like--
- Me: Brandon... hey, Brandon... maybe you shouldn't be so blatant...
- Zahel: I'm Vasher, btw
- Me: Brandon
- Chapter Headings: This is how Intent works, this is how the Shards work. Allow me to explain the entire cosmere.
- Me: BRANDON
My preread theory:
- Navani is gonna be the next Bondsmith (CONFIRMED!!!)
My afterread theory:
- Mraize is Kelsier? The guy in charge of the Ghostbloods is Kelsier? KELSIER IS IN THE GHOSTBLOODS, HECK IT!!!
-

Oh yeah, that would be awesome.
SpoilerWhen the Kelsier is Thaidakar reveal happened, I had to set down the book and just repeatedly whisper “Thaidakar is Kelsier” to myself a few times until it sank in.
Also, it seems like Shallon may be starting to use, or be aware of, some other Cosmere magic systems.

It is done.
A song completed; a destination reached; a battle won.
A rhythm of war come to a close.
