The Way of Kings: Reactions & Retrospective | SpanReads – Shardcast: The Brandon Sanderson Podcast

This week on SpanReads, we are onto The Way of Kings, the first book of The Stormlight Archive! What did we think of it on a reread? Is it just as much a classic as we all remember?

This episode we have Mi'chelle (firstRainbowRose), Ian (Weiry), David (Windrunner), and Joshua (Jofwu). Spoiler policy in this episode is The Way of Kings spoilers only.

We're doing a series of Stormlight recap articles on our site, updated through Rhythm of War: https://www.17thshard.com/news/features/stormlight-archive-recap-world-and-history-r1056/
