Fantastic - every bit as good as the first book
This is an excellent book - every bit as good as the original. I won't repeat everything about it as everything I wrote in my review of the first book holds for the second, but basically it's the most original fantasy i've ever read - really the first complete, coherent, original world since Tolkien's Middle Earth (and very different from it) ; the characters are highly interesting, believable and easy to identify with ; and it kept me constantly interested to find out what was going to happen next and what had happened in the past of the characters and the history of their world.

Phenomenal
This was my first interaction with Sanderson's work and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended for the start of an epic fantasy with deeply emotional moments and beautiful world building.

Amazing
A book i just can't and don't want to put down once read. Its amazing, gripping and more than worth it. Its a experience you should try because gawd damn it !! I love this BOOK. The characters you really do get to care for, to understand them and not shun them away.This book is really amazing espically with the epic's happening and the true un-folding beginning in this part two of Book one. I will defiantly be looking out for The Stormlight Archive and will pre-order it without a hesitation.Though its better if you read part one before this one in my opinion, anyhow 5/5 GOB SMACKING GLORIOUS.

Not flawless, but the world he is creating is fascinating and original, and can't wait for the next one.
First off, I should say what would get 5 stars so you know if I am a good comparitor: "name of the wind" and the first "game of thrones" both get a 5 from me. I liked his first 'mistborn' trilogy, which would also get a 5. If you haven't read it, check it out, it's great, and although this looks more epic, the 'Mistborn' trilogy was largely flawless in my opinion.This is a very different world, and a very very original one. The landscape, plants, magic all unique to this series. The books are not flawless: on a couple of occasions the dialogue jarred, and one of the characters annoyed me to such an extent I skipped her chapters and then when back to them at the end ( seperate storyline so can do this). Was glad i did as the extra dimension this character opens up at the end is huge (but still a highly annoying character). But the actual story and way the world and its history is created step by step kept me going and I will most definitely buy the next installment when its out (i sometimes cant be bothered to carry on a series if it doesnt grab me).It looks like this will be far larger than a trilogy - no bad thing but it will mean a long wait till the end if you catch this series early.In conclusion: highly recommended. In parts it would have benefitted from a bit of a polish, but the story is just too intriguing, and the world and magic too fascinating to give this anything less than a solid 4 stars.

Good Stuff!
Great Series, Great Author, Great impatience waiting for the next in the series!Can't complain as Brandon Sanderson is a beast for churning out brilliant books in no time at all, seriously I think there's something wrong with him, but i love it.I guess what i'm trying to say is buy this book,buy his other books,do it,now,you wont regret it.I got into this series after the WoT series, if you like one you'll like the other.

Confusion of book numbers but a very good read
The titles are very confusing as this is the 2nd book, but part of book 1. Words of Radiance: The Stormlight Archive Book Two: is actually the 3rd book in this series.The Way of Kings has some very different and new ideas, and the story is told well, which is why I have bought the next book in the series. It is going to be set over 10 volumes, but doesn't say how many books.

Çok hızlı geldi, paketleme güzeldi.
2 gün içerisinde teslim edilmesi beni çok mutlu etti. Kitap, zarar görmemesi için baloncuklu poşet ile sarılmıştı. Paketleme, amacına hizmet etmiş ve gönderici temiz bir ürün göndermiş olmalı ki, kitap üzerinde tek bir çizik, iz, darbe vs. olmadan elime ulaştı. Teşekkürler.

Nice edition, especially for the very agreeable price
It's a pleasant to look at hardcover, with a back that doesn't die as soon as it's read properly(like some other editions of this series ;) )

Obra bien ejecutada y adictiva
Brandon Sandersons no decepciona, sigue ofreciendo mundos de fantasia extremadamente cuidados, ricos e interesantes para cautivar al lector.Nada de momentos "WTF", que te dejan pensando que los personajes son tontos por obrar torpemente a bien de mantener un drama artificial, Stormlight Archive esta bien pensado para ofrecer una narrativa que fluye de manera natural e inteligente.
