I'm about 70% into Oathbringer. The 3rd book of the Stormlight Archive. And I have to admit. It's actually pretty good.

To those who said I was warned that the 3rd book would be bad, you're so so wrong. This is better than the second book, which in turn was better than the first book.
It fixes the problems I had with the first book. Where book 1 was lacking big character changing events, book 3 delivers that. And Sanderson actually managed to surprise me a few times. I'm used to being underwhelmed by his reveals, because he normally foreshadows too hard. But he actually surprised me.

The last two books feel like they were just setting up for this one. Oathbringer is just development after development. Pay off after pay off. You guys didn't give it enough time. Though, I kind of understand if you fell in love with Kaladin, and now you feel let down. Because the amount of PoV time he has is greatly diminished. However, his story is still developing in an interesting way, imo.

With still roughly 30% left, I'm already satisfied. I doubt Sanderson can write anything so stupid in the end to make me change my mind on the book now.
