![]() ![]() "Edgedancer" is rather different from the other Stormlight Archive books - it focuses almost entirely on Lift rather than the other characters we know and love, and the conflict is relatively small-scale despite the expansive universe it takes place in. ![]() But as an Everstorm approaches and the assassins close in on the Radiant, it may be difficult to save them without ending up at the business end of a Shardblade herself. Her only plan for saving the other Radiant is to try to find something weird that can be tracked down to a particular person. She's deduced that Darkness is after someone else with powers in Yeddaw.Īnd she turns out to be right, as she overhears that Darkness and his cronies are planning to kill another Radiant somewhere in the city - someone with superhuman powers - and Darkness is planning to dispose of Lift himself. Of course, being Lift, she causes quite a bit of mayhem in this new city as she defies the guards and clashes with the twiggy owner of an orphanage, all in the hopes of attracting her enemy's attention. and Darkness, the Shardbearer who has already tried to kill her. ![]() So she heads to Yeddaw, a strange city with "really awesome pancakes". Much to Wyndle's dismay, Lift is feeling stifled by palace life and decides to run away before she's changed too much by the experience. But she's exactly the kind of character that you'd expect Brandon Sanderson to devote an entire novella to, which is why we got "Edgedancer," a little spinoff novel that follows Lift on her own side-adventure. One of the most interesting characters in the Stormlight Archive series is Lift, a girl who is exactly what you wouldn't expect in a powerful knight - a quirky teenage urchin who eschews shoes, eats a lot and is accompanied everywhere by a talking vine. WARNING: This novella has already been published in the collection "Arcanum Unbounded," so don't buy if you already own that book. ![]()
