It was&amp;hellip; fine. I don&amp;rsquo;t think it&amp;rsquo;s a bad book. I think I probably just have Sanderson fatigue after reading Stormlight book 5. Dawnshard is basically Stormlight 3.5 . For some reason I missed this book so I&amp;rsquo;m reading it out of order, which might be part of the why I&amp;rsquo;m not so excited by it. Perhaps I would have been more excited about it, if I read it 4 or 5 years ago.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
