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.
Finished The Will of the Many. Solid 8.5 to 9/10 book, and I can see the similarities to Red Rising. Lot of potential here, shame about that cliffhanger though. I definitely enjoy competitive school novels apparently (or more likely, series where you see character growth starting early). Might lean into that.
For now, going to try The Wolf next I think, and it's nice to see that there's multiple books already out in that series.
