You mean to tell me I struggle-bussed through 4 Stormlight Archive books when Warbreaker has been here this whole time?!? I am kicking myself for not reading this sooner. One of the coolest magic systems ever, and now so many other Cosmere puzzle pieces have fallen so obviously into place. I loved the character growth of the two main POVs. And my life for Lightsong ❤️
