The book has a bit of a slow start and can be confusing. Therefore it can take some time to get involved in the story, but it is really well constructed in its entirety.
There is this constant crescendo that keeps on going with the last 200 pages just blowing your mind.
I think where it shines even more then Empire of Silence is the emotional impact of the story and how the characters interact. It feels way more natural and I felt way more connected.

The Gathering Storm made me fall in love with The Wheel of Time all over again! Sanderson did an amazing job in taking it over and kept Jordans voice, while at the same time putting enough of himself in there as well.
It sadly also makes the obvious criticism of the previous books stand out even more. The Gathering Storm had way better pacing, way more emotional impact and had a constant flow moving forward.
I loved every story arc and couldn't stop rooting for every single character.
This is my favorite book, so far, and I can't wait for the last 2. Only 1900 pages to go before this journey comes to end.

This is yet another great book in the serie, but left me a bit conflicted at the same time. Sanderson had the difficult job to tie up a lot of loose ends and it's when you read this book that you realize just how many of them there are. This means that this book sometimes focusses on boring characters that don't really matter or world building elements that were forgotten for 8 books.
However, there are many genius moments that made me hold my breath and some of those loose ends were really satisfying to see tied up. Everything is set up nicely for, what can't be anything other than, a grand and spectacular finale.

This is a difficult book to rate for me.
I loved some aspects of it, like the world building, some characters and the epicness of the story. However, the page count doesn't feel justified and although they are some important themes in the book, I was never fully emotional invested in it.
