Tears of Liscor

It's been a year and a half since volume 8 ended and here we are another 3 million words later. Mainstream author's like Sanderson get applauded for incredible work ethic and fast output, but to put it in perspective Pirateaba has written more in the last 2 years than the entirety of the Cosmere combined.

Anyways, I thought the ending of Volume 8 was awesome and didn't know if it would be topped, but Volume 9 was insane and did it somehow. Sometimes a story needs a good reset to give it new life and take it in new directions, and while at the time the end of volume 7 seemed like it was doing that for Volume 8, (and then the end of Volume 8 was more of a welcome return to form for Volume 9) I think the end of Volume 9 flipped the whole board over to give an interesting direction for Volume 10, and I will be there no matter what !
