Edgedancer

A fun little romp, something like the short-story interim in [a:Brandon Sanderson|38550|Brandon Sanderson|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1394044556p2/38550.jpg] Reckoner's Series, [b:Mitosis|18966322|Mitosis (The Reckoners, #1.5)|Brandon Sanderson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1385570447l/18966322.SX50.jpg|26984416]. The character is a fun rascal that my daughter would love to read, stealing pancakes, indulging in some potty-humor, and saving people from the bad-guys. At the same time, Sanderson is smartly laying ground-work for future books and more in the Stormlight Archives.

A little juvenile? Sure. Relevant to the epic series? Yep. Worth enjoying? Definitely.

for a short novel its better than I thought

Eh... got to admit I didn't care for this novella. I'm not a fan of Lift as her character is more annoying than funny. I did like the growth of Nale and the conversation with Zseth.

Biggest problem is that these in between novellas should elicit excitement for the next book... but this actually did the opposite for me. And that's sad.
