From Brandon Sandersonâ??author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive and its fourth massive installment, Rhythm of Warâ??comes a new hefty novella, Dawnshard. Taking place between Oathbringer and Rhythm of War, this tale (like Edgedancer before it) gives often-overshadowed characters their own chance to shine.

When a ghost ship is discovered, its crew presumed dead after trying to reach the storm-shrouded island Akinah, Navani Kholin must send an expedition to make sure the island hasn't fallen into enemy hands. Knights Radiant who fly too near find their Stormlight suddenly drained, so the voyage must be by sea.

Shipowner Rysn Ftori lost the use of her legs but gained the companionship of Chiri-Chiri, a Stormlight-ingesting winged larkin, a species once thought extinct. Now Rysn's pet is ill, and any hope for Chiri-Chiri's recovery can be found only at the ancestral home of the larkin: Akinah. With the help of Lopen, the formerly one-armed Windrunner, Rysn must accept Navani's quest and sail into the perilous storm from which no one has returned alive. If the crew cannot uncover the secrets of the hidden island city before the wrath of its ancient guardians falls upon them, the fate of Roshar and the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance… (meer)

B (Good).

A merchant ship is sent to investigate a forbidden island. Even though this book has its own adventure story quest arc, it feels very much like the middle of a larger story. Which of course it is. There's just too much mystery at the end, about what's actually going on, to feel like an ending. I am interested to see where this is going, though.

This was a good short read that reminded me about how things work on Roshar, and gave some character development for some less prominent characters before diving in to Rhythm of War. It managed to be a good stand-alone story and also advance the overall mythos of the Cosmere. ( )

Despite being longer than Brandon Sanderson intended (a pattern, it turns out considering how the second period of Mistborn came about), Dawnshard is still a brisk read about haunted ships and disability. Really, REALLY dig how he used language when characters switch to their native tongues instead of the "Alethi" most characters speak in the books- reminds me of how Warrior on cinemax handles in-world conversations between the Chinese characters vs. when they're talking those outside their community in English.

Onwards to book 4! ( )

Wow!

Having had a bad experience with edgedancer I wasn’t excited about this one, but boy was I wrong. The cast of characters were amazing. The lore was bursting from the seems inside this novella! And the overall plot, while short, was all the more intriguing.

Super excited to get into RoW, and see what The Lopen can do. ( )
