The Way of Kings

I don't know how to review this book. Firstly, I would like to give myself 5 stars for finishing this behemoth even when at the start it felt like a bit of a slog. Every single chapter after I was about 150 pages in made me impatient for just one more chapter. I was left in complete amazement at the incredible talent and intellect required to create a world so intricately detailed that it blew my mind.
My favourite aspect of this book is how character-driven it is. It is also a truly exceptional piece of literature in the sense that it has it all - tales of love, death, trust, betrayal, hope, despair, and faith, all told from multiple povs. Truly exhilarating. Intense in the best possible way.
