Words of Radiance

2024: Onward to part #2 - Re-read commencing!

—————————–

2022: When I finished this book and put it on the shelf, I felt like I was saying goodbye to good friends. The world-building is so vivid and so incredibly demanding on the senses. I felt like I had trudged through the anguish, the heartbreak, the despair, and the thirst for retribution with the main characters. I can say without any hesitancy at all that this is my favorite fantasy book.

OK, no more rants. Onward with the review.

What can I say that has not already been said? I kind of feel like I am late to the party, but I'm glad I showed up.

Book Two is like The Empire Strikes Back. It's the best SW movie by a long shot. It's not even a contest. It takes what we learned in the first and expands upon it in a grandiose fashion. All your favorite characters show up, and they go on an exciting adventure. All the while, you sit there in awe of the spectacle, unable to take your eyes off the screen, or in this case, off the page.
