There were multiple points while reading this book when I was actually screaming out loud, on the edge of my seat, and crying. This is only my second 5 star book of 2024 so far.

Honor is dead... but I'll see what I can do

animal death/cruelty:

A mc's horse dies during war. Besides that all animals are made-up species: there is an animal fighting ring, a zoo visited by characters, and other animals killed.

A great second book from the Stormlight Archive. Really enjoyed the character development over this book, and the action was tense and engaging, especially the last quarter of the book - I found it difficult to put down! Multiple POVs were not confusing, there's enough context info to figure out what's going on. Can't wait to read book 3.
