Don't have anything to add to what has not already been said about the book. It is focused on setting up the world of Roshar and has a satisfying end, leaving you wanting more.
A bit slow at times. But still a fun story, especially halfway through the book when the story develops further and comes together at times.

Omg I loved this book! Especially chapter 12 I want a novella with Kaladin and Adonlin adventures cannon or not.
But that ending I did not see it coming with odium. And the epilogue left me curious what Hoid is up to.
I disliked Lift in words of radiance. But while reading this novella I grew to love her. Such a fun and interesting character.

It was really satisfying seeing what kind of things happened behind the scenes. It was great to watch Kelsier in action again after his quick demise in the original series and I am interested what is to come in the future. Loved seeing all the connections to other books or novellas.
It repeats many elements of the books, which makes it longer than it needed to be. But it was originally intended for a board game so that people who hadn't read the books could get a vibe from the books. So it can be forgiven, but it's still mid.
My only criticism of this book is the pacing of the beginning. Unlike the first book, which had a slower, more deliberate rhythm, this one felt rushed at the beginning.
It's written too much like a book and didn't really let the panels tell the story. Every panel had descriptions like "He dodged it," something you can also see. The art is also very inconsistent.
Really enjoyed the story and the magic system. Loved Vivenna story in the book and Vasher was my favorite character.
