33:00 Wit/Hoid is commenting on the Shard of Odium held by the vessel known as Rayse. In this context, Shard refers to pieces of Adolnalsium, the creator God that was splintered into 16 "Shards" long ago. It's where the plate and blades get their name.

@Raphaeltheraven 3 күн бұрын
This is my favorite book of all time! (But book 4 of Stormlight is a close 2nd). I love the quote from the end of the final Kaladin chapter: "He'd finally managed to save someone. For now, that was enough."
@Rafdi13 3 күн бұрын
You should notice all The "oh you are so witty" phrases come from people that are below Shallan station. Jasnah actually talks about it with her. Characters flaws are not bad writing when is clear that are wrong things that a character has to improve. Just like Szeth doing everything that he is told by the master, Kaladin focusing only in negative things, Dalinar preaching behaviour, Jasnah being rude etc. After way of kings, Warbreaker is a good read before Words or Radiance. Palate cleanser and some things that you see are related with things that you find with words of radiance
@fluffy_walrus 10 сағат бұрын
Yeah, the "Shallan is so witty" bit is all about classism. She's a relatively privileged noble and it's not uncommon in the real world for lower/working class people to play up praise for upper class people to safeguard themselves in their interactions, even if that praise is entirely unwarranted. Shallan's utter lack of wit and charisma is meant to evoke dissonance in the reader when confronted by people saying Shallan is witty and clever when she's objectively not, and it's a commentary on the disparity between light eyes and dark eyes and the different realities they exist in.

10:55 The fact that you remember Kaladin's name is probably the best foreshadowing that you'll like his story! (I'll just ignore the few times you called him Kelsier. xD) 12:30 I still don't understand how the bridges work like how do they push them across chasms without falling?? xD 31:50 You should definitely read the epithets again if you have the time :D 37:15 At least your rational side is telling you not to trust Sadeas xD 41:00 Kaladin surviving the highstorm is such a main character moment and I'm loving every second of it xD 54:20 I didn't see Kabsals betrayal coming at all, but now that you quote him, it's kinda obvious xD 1:1:30 F*** Amaram 1:10:10 You're finished it at work?! I could never concentrate at work again xD 1:12:25 Kaladin finally reaches the goat status! 1:17:50 And this is the moment Dalinar becomes the goat too! Great recap! I had a blast listening to all your theories and seeing how close or how astronomically far away they are from the truth :D Is this how everyone felt when you first read OP xD If you want to read other Cosmere books in between Stormlight, you should check out Warbreaker. It's not mandatory, but it would be useful. Other than that, the only real must-read books are the two Stormlight novellas and the Mistborn Secret History novella :D

-epithets- Epigraphs. An epithet is an insult, the more shakespearean the better. And yeah, there is so much juice in the epigraphs of these books.

Glad you are enjoying the journey. Shortly before I started reading WoK I heard someone describe it as a book about a character having to make a fateful choice except the whole of the book shows that character would always make that choice because of who Kaladin is and all he has been through.

I personally prefer this book to the next book, but the next book is still almost as good as this one and has an even better flashback and you'll probably like Shallan a lot more in the second book.

I've only seen the review part, but I'll check out the rest later, but honestly it makes me so happy that you love it so much (+Yay for the trope discussion)! Kaladin's winning Bridge 4 over combined with the rescue will always be one of my favourite book arcs of all time! :D Now that I've finished Stormlight 5, it's actually crazy how much foreshadowing there is already in WoK that isn't revealed until book 5, and even things that aren't answered yet. Sanderson has his flaws, but the sheer amount of planned world building is really impressive! :D So, has your copy of Words of Radiance arrived yet? 👀 You've already mentioned it, but I just want to reiterate that WoR is even better :D

Oda and sanderson are probably the only 2 people who can just write for 20+ years and I have full faith in them. Unlike Martin, if either of these 2 took a 13 year break before their next book/chapter I would happily wait.

The beginning before it switches to a vlog should be spoiler free/ spoiler light Then it’s my thoughts as I read the book (I’ll add a note in the timestamps when the spoilers start) I don’t consider how I talked about the characters in the beginning a spoiler but some people don’t want any information that’s not in the synopsis and I go into a hair more detail then that (hence spoiler light)
