And I’m inclined to say that perhaps this book is more of a must-read than his previous Stormlight novella, Edgedancer. The plot was a bit more fun than I expected. Though he is often relegated to comic relief in the series, I appreciated this opportunity to take a closer look at him as an individual. Lopen, however, has been one of my favorite characters from the very beginning. There are many named characters and a lot going on in these stories, so having a whole book dedicated to Rysn has ensured that I remember her. While she has been mentioned at least a few times throughout the series, I recalled nothing about her. Fearing that the enemy has captured the island and its Oathgate, Navani has sent Rysn and Lopen on a mission to breach the storms and solve the mystery of Akinah island.īecause I haven’t taken the opportunity to re-read any of The Stormlight Archive novels, I often forget who’s who. There is a mysterious island where there is said to be an oathgate, but all previous expeditions to the area have ended in the disappearance of the ship’s crew. This series basically needs no introduction at this point, so I’m going to go ahead and skip to the meat of this novella.ĭawnshard takes place soon after Oathbringer and focuses on two characters, Rysn and Lopen.
