I don't know many Sanderson fans are around here, but for those who don't know, the 5th book of the Stormlight Archive just came out. I'm about halfway through it and there is so much shoehorned woke garbage in it.
One character is suddenly gay, like Kaiden in Mass Effect 3. There are all these references to transgenderism, which hasn't existed at all in this universe until this point. All of it is so jarring and out of place. I guess Sanderson has been spending too much time on reddit.
I just want one thing I can enjoy.
I read the first two or three, and it is good. I still definitely recommend, just maybe avoid the fifth, I guess, if OP is correct. But, yeah, good series, what I've read of it.
I hesitate to say avoid it altogether. The good parts are still good. Just know what you're getting into.
Thanks!
