AND THE TRAIN HAS ARRIVED AT IT'S DESTINATION!!!
And boyyyy was the journey, and the destination, amazing!!! 😭😭😭
This was one of my favourite books of the series and in my top 10 favourites of all the books I've read.
I'm struggling to express how incredible this was.
Do you know of the Sanderlanche? The last quarter of a Brandon Sanderson book where so much stuff lines up and all the action happens and it is impossible to put the book down? That Sanderlanche? Yeah, this entire book was a Sanderlanche. The whole thing.
I was 40% through this book, feeling like it was near the end because the scale of events happening was so big and near the conclusion...then it kept going, and bigger things were happening, and then things were happening outside Cradle and with the Abidan, and then we got to see Lindon grow so goddamn powerful and flexing his power and learning more and more and more about the world.
I had shit to do today, I had chores and responsibilities, but fuck me did this book make my life so much harder the past 2 days 🤣
Do you know how HARD it is to have a life when reading this book? 🤣 I'm gone out to do something and my mind is on Cradle, I've gone to the post office and I'm thinking of Cradle, I go to shower and I have to have the audiobook playing so I can know what the hell is going on in Cradle.
This book had me so hooked I was OBSESSED 💀
I do, however, have some criticisms.
The death of the Mad King? It was rushed,
and shit.
That wouldn't bother me, as I wasn't super interested in that part of the series, at one point I thought it'd be more connected to the planet Cradle, but it was barely, and I realise it's connected to a larger connected universe known by the fandom as the "Williverse"
But the fact that storyline took up so much of all 12 books, makes me pissed off and like my time was wasted. A load of bollocks. But the book was so damn good that it doesn't affect my rating.
The end of the book was funny and wholesome. The main characters' plot lines were wrapped up nicely, bar a few side characters who weren't all that important.
So, what now? What do I do with my life?
Well, of course, now I know this series was part of an in-book universe of Wight's other series'....now I gotta start at the beginning 💀
But first, gotta read the rest of Cradle's short stories! Wish me luck! 🍀
