Pros

This novel is for the sanderson fans—meaning that you must have read other stories of his to fully appreciate this one. The prose is much closer to sanderson's usual style, though this book is faster paced and more tightly focused on a single characte... Read More

It is good. In that respect too, the sunlit man delivers. Another excellent cosmere adventure. Another cosmere masterpiece.

Competitiveness

This was my favorite out of all four of the kickstarter books and thought it was a great way to end the journey we started with... Read More

We learn to love aux and we cheer for nomad.

More precisely, while star wars is fantasy dressed as sci-fi, sanderson’s stories are science fiction dressed as fantasy.
