Story
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.

Story
For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

What the critics say
"Jordan has come to dominate the world that Tolkien began to reveal." (The New York Times)
Featured Article: The Best Female Narrators You Can Listen To All Day
When considering a new audiobook, one of the biggest questions listeners have is whether they’ll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable as audiobooks span at least a few hours, and sticking with one person’s voice for that period can feel like a big commitment. Luckily, there are so many excellent voice actors performing audiobooks that you might just find yourself gravitating to certain audiobooks based solely on the narrator’s strength.

Decent Story, worth a listen
Overall I enjoyed this book however, for some reason the narrator changes at really odd times for no apparent reason. I found the Male narrator to be a little dry though he was consistent with the various voices. the female narrator I found to be much more engaging and kept my attention more.

Great build up (and not much else)
Enjoyable but this book was primarily world building. Understandable considering this series has 14 books but it kinda dragged at times, especially considering it feels very familiar to many other fantasy series. The sequels are vastly more interesting and this book succeeds in hooking you in for the long haul.

It’s really a great story. The readers read it well and the interview with the author at the end is a very nice touch. Would rebuy no question and will probably relisten

Review
when the reader changed randomly it was pretty distracting, especially the first time. it happens about 5-6 times. it's definitely a book that knows that there will be multiple sequels so the pacing is kinda slow. still pretty good, will listen to the next one

As good or better than reading it many years ago
Originally read it as a young teenager. Now almost 30, it brings back memories but also takes on a new flavour as an audiobook. Now to hope the Amazon Prime series holds up.

great story
was awesome loved that i could work and "read" from some of my fav books... only thing that was odd/off putting was the change in narrator that randomly change between the guy and the girl for no apparent reason and also the guy never put any pauses at the end of paragraphs when it would change people so a lot of times it would change people in you think it's continuation of the last paragraph but it wasn't until you randomly hear a name of a character isn't in that location
