Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Reading this reminded me of reading Dune the first time (30 years ago). Took a little effort in the beginning to figure out, and get invested in, the various characters, communities, places and story. Like with Dune, however, the investment is more than worth it and the eventual payoff is huge. Eagerly downloading Book 2 now.

Berlin, 1932. Sophie is a smart and sexually precocious 14-year-old coming of age during Hitler's rise to power. Forced to lead a double life when her father and boyfriend become Nazi collaborators, she reserves her dreams of becoming an actress for her beloved elderly neighbor, Isaac Zarco, and his friends, most of whom are Jews working against the government in a secret group called the Ring. When a member is sent to Dachau, she realizes there must be a Nazi traitor in the group - but who?

Amazing book - the ending falls a bit short though
Revisado: 05-05-17
Highly recommend this book and I laughed and cried through its many many hours... Having said that, the ending is so abrupt and quite unsatisfying... not in a cliffhanger kind of way, but because of the way it starts in the very beginning.
Bringing it back to close the loop in the timeline mentioned at the start (even as a sad ending - which would be fitting) would have made it an absolute masterpiece.
