Love Brandon Sanderson and so excited for this full book. I usually don't care for excerpts because it makes me crave the book even more, but I just couldn't help myself!! I needed it!!

Well, I just tortured myself I guess! Because now I'm just hankering even more for the full book! As always, Sanderson is at peak form, proving once again why he's the GOAT of modern fantasy authors! There are so many epic characters with dynamic storylines just waiting to reach what I'm sure will be a monumental conclusion to this part of the Stormlight Archive. It's honestly difficult to come up with a favorite among them all! I guess while I wait I'll just go back and have to re-read the previous books in the series!

Amazing excerpt, this book is going to do wonders and set the world on FIRE! I'm continually astounded by how Sanderson crafts his worlds.

Brandon Sanderson’s writing is impeccable, every story he’s put out has captured my attention and made me rethink how everything is connected! I’m excited for what the rest of the Cosmere has in store in the future.

This just made me even more excited for the release of Wind And Truth in December! I can’t wait to see what Sanderson has in store but also I’m slightly terrified….

Wind and Truth is spectacular, the pacing, hints and foreshadowing that leads up to this book sets the tone and then Mr Sanderson proceeds to go above and beyond! This extended excerpt is wonderful and answers many questions but in the words of Brandon himself "There is always another secret". 10/10 I recommend this as I will also be reading the rest of it as soon as it comes out!

Ahhhh! I can’t wait for the rest. Wind and Truth is my most anticipated book of the year and this excerpt confirms that it’s going to be the epic ending I’ve been waiting for.

I would like to say something calm and reasonable about this. Like to. BUT, I am a feral mess and just sitting in my room unable to decide on what to do with myself. Entire day has been wasted since I finished this off at 10am and now I'm just making a conspiracy board connecting red strings of causality in my mind about what will happen next.

I should have waited till December because no I have to not spoil anyone.

It is going to be extremely hard to wait for the rest of this book. Sanderson write such subtle metaphors and such deep characters. This is high fantasy, that doesn't feel like high fantasy. He's built a HUGE world, but you still just feel like you're following a day in the life of each character per chapter. Even when you're reading the chapters from godlike beings! Sanderson keeps his fans fed.

332 pages was not enough! I can’t wait for the rest of this title to be out. What a freaking RETURN to the Cosmere. I’ll avoid spoilers in this review but DANG if hearts aren’t gonna break in this one. Thank you to NetGalley and TOR for the extended excerpt. See y’all in December.

Return to Roshar for the epic conclusion to the first arc of the Stormlight Archive. Brandon continues to improve and stretch himself in his writing in this book.

He is sending his characters both emotionally and physically to places they've never been before.

Even just the first 300 pages of this book are full of surprises that have me hooked and waiting with bated breath for the rest of the book to release.

I can already foresee the tears coming, and I'm looking forward to the laughter as well. Each of these books has helped me to better understand myself and others, and I'm looking forward to the next step!

I found the extended excerpt of Wind and Truth to be incredible. Rhythm of War had a great cliffhanger and set the stage for an epic ending to era 1 of The Stormlight Archives. Wind and Truth runs with this, giving us time to remember what it is we love about these characters and what they love about each other before raising the stakes and setting them all off in exciting and unexpected directions. The excerpt is full of long-awaited reveals and new mysteries. The wait has been worth it. I can't wait to read the rest.

Really great sample, can't wait for the other 75%. Plot, pacing, characters, all been fantastic. Lore drops are super interesting. I've laughed and I've cried.

But I do think the line-by-line writing and the dialogue is the weakest it's been in Stormlight thus far.
