This week on SpanReads, we are discussing the magic of The Way of Kings, which... is actually fairly light, so you get a shorter episode today. This episode we have Mi'chelle (firstRainbowRose), Ian (Weiry), David (Windrunner), and Joshua (Jofwu). Spoiler policy in this episode is The Way of Kings spoilers only. We're doing a series of Stormlight recap articles on our site, updated through Rhythm of War: https://www.17thshard.com/news/features/stormlight-archive-recap-world-and-history-r1056/ For a deep refresher of the whole book, check out the Coppermind's summary of The Way of Kings: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Summary:The_Way_of_Kings Thumbnail is the 2024 Bulgarian cover, by Yasen Stoilov: https://twitter.com/Yasen_Stoilov/status/1770075742191108536 Yasen's covers are absolutely badass (and I'll be using them in later Stormlight thumbs), check them out: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Coppermind:Artists/Yasen_Stoilov New SpanReads episodes every Thursday all the way until December!
