There is some debate on reddit about who the author of "Knights of Wind and Truth" is. We have been told for years that book 5 is Szeth's book. He is clearly the author is he not?

All of the scenes in which Kaladin swore his ideals appeared in depth rattles. This has probably been laid out before but it's new to me

love this so much

Also an asshole and a bad parent. But no I don't hate him for all the obvious reason

F*ck Lirin. Such an asshole and bad parent

He wasn't executed

Nah

"Not everyone deserves to be protected"

Rock's punishment is certainly leadership

I hope Brandon changes his opinion on this. No reason to shoehorn a name into an arbitrary thing

This is an awesome point I didnt think about at all

I think Adolin is going to be our hero of books 6-10 and the biggest reason that will be possible is because he's NOT a Radiant. I haven't worked through all the possibilities yet but Adolin is being set up for some big developments in this book and because of timelines, those moments wont come in book 5

Raboniel was awesome. She was super valuable to build Navani's character to show how similar they were but still different at the same time. Also she was useful to show that not all the fused are the same or in agreement with each other. The Raboniel, Pursuer, Leshwi dynamic was great. All fused, all different

So I was really bored by the flashbacks in the book. I personally have no emotional investment in Venli as a character so seeing her come to be was not interesting to me in the least BUT I am very interested in what other people got from the flashbacks. I think other perspectives might make me appreciate them more. Your thoughts?

I absolutely hate Lirin and no ones mental gymnastics or rationalizations will convince me otherwise. Dude is a coward and a fool
