Hey everyone! I hope you are all doing well and staying warm during this winter snap. I don’t want to ramble on for too long because I am so excited to talk about this book. Go ahead and check out my review for the first three books in this series. I also started Sanderson’s Mistborn trilogy so I will be reviewing that soon. I just love fantasy books. With that being said, let’s talk about Rhythm of War.

Content Warning: Intense Battle Sequences, Discussions and Depictions of Depression, Character Death

The war of gods has started. Secrets will come to light and lives will be changed forever. Shallan Davar decides that she must finally face her past, but discovers a much more difficult task at hand. Kaladin Stormblessed struggles with the darkness in his mind as it eats away from him. Venli must decide where her loyalties lie. Navani Kholin finds herself on the brink of a discovery that could change the world forever, for gods and man alike. No one is ready for what the future holds.

Every single book in this series has been an absolute delight. I don’t like to be hyperbolic in my reviews so when I say something is wonderful, I say it with my whole chest. What I really appreciated about this particular entry in this series is its depiction of struggles with mental illness and feeling as though you are unworthy. It was as honest as it was heartfelt. I love how Sanderson allows the characters to be relatable, regardless of their powers. It makes the story feel more grounded. It is also a testament to Sanderson’s incredible attention to detail. I was genuinely touched at certain points in the book. On the flip side, the battle scenes were incredible and I am so excited to read the next book. Please read this series. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
