I started Rhythm of War right after finishing Oathbringer, which was different. I’ve always taken a break and read something else between Sanderson books. It was nice getting to continue the story immediately. Overall I enjoyed this, but I think it’s my least favorite of the Stormlight Archive books. I loved Kaladin, Shallan, and Adolin’s character development and Navani had some great moments as well, but I didn’t really enjoy Venli as the flashback character. Apart from some hints at the greater Cosmere, I don’t think we got as much out of the flashbacks because so much of the listeners’ story was captured in Words of Radiance. I enjoyed being able to pick up on references to other Cosmere works and I’m looking forward to reading more and seeing how they fit together.
