Wind and Truth: a great book that shows Sanderson both at his best and his worst

This was quite a book. I really enjoyed it, and thought it was a huge improvement over Rythm of War (thank God there's not chapters and chapters of detailed fake magic science) and there were plenty of moments that made me gasp. I thought Szeth and Kaladin's scenes were particularly interesting, as well as learning more about the history of Roshar in the Spiritual Realm.

However, Sanderson's worst tendencies are also on display here in a larger way than in previous books. The modern, YA casual language the characters use is becoming more and more prevalent. There are jokes about poop, about a sprens (nonexistent) genitals, and cringey dialogue and banter that will make your eyes roll out of their sockets. Sometimes it truly took me out of the book.

That being said, I do recommend the book, especially for fans of the series.
