Thought it was about the time to start a thread about the new Stormlight book. It is due out on November 14th and I'll certainly be pre-ordering it!

From Good Reads -

In Oathbringer, the third volume of the New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive, humanity faces a new Desolation with the return of the Voidbringers, a foe with numbers as great as their thirst for vengeance.

Dalinar Kholin’s Alethi armies won a fleeting victory at a terrible cost: The enemy Parshendi summoned the violent Everstorm, which now sweeps the world with destruction, and in its passing awakens the once peaceful and subservient parshmen to the horror of their millennia-long enslavement by humans. While on a desperate flight to warn his family of the threat, Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with the fact that the newly kindled anger of the parshmen may be wholly justified.

Nestled in the mountains high above the storms, in the tower city of Urithiru, Shallan Davar investigates the wonders of the ancient stronghold of the Knights Radiant and unearths dark secrets lurking in its depths. And Dalinar realizes that his holy mission to unite his homeland of Alethkar was too narrow in scope. Unless all the nations of Roshar can put aside Dalinar’s blood-soaked past and stand together―and unless Dalinar himself can confront that past―even the restoration of the Knights Radiant will not prevent the end of civilization.

Words of Radiance ended in a pretty epic way. I'm very much looking forward to the next volume. Sanderson's world-building has been excellent so far and I'm excited to see him build on it.

Originally, I thought it was going to be focused on Szeth, but I'm not sure that is the case now looking at what has been revealed about the book...Tbh, I'm good with that as I'm not sure I'm that bothered about a Szeth-focused book.

Anyone else looking forward to it?

Here is a link to the thread for the previous book btw - https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/t...words-of-radiance-possible-spoilers.18574441/

Started it tonight. Got right back in to it. Chapter seven is pretty awesome.

I'd say that spoilers are OK so long as you put the chapter number in-

I was waiting for Kaladin to show up...and once he gets home he doesn't waste any time! I think the chapter is very well written and the last bit is just awesome:D... "By the way it's the end of the world, I can fly and I've got to go kill some monsters. Be back soon". Starts glowing and flies off!

I got called in to do a night shift tonight and tbh I didn't mind as it gave me the chance to get to grips with this.
