Publisher's summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, a special gift edition of Edgedancer, a short novel of the Stormlight Archive (previously published in Arcanum Unbounded).

Three years ago, Lift asked a goddess to stop her from growing older—a wish she believed was granted. Now, in Edgedancer, the barely teenage nascent Knight Radiant finds that time stands still for no one. Although the young Azish emperor granted her safe haven from an executioner she knows only as Darkness, court life is suffocating the free-spirited Lift, who can't help heading to Yeddaw when she hears the relentless Darkness is there hunting people like her with budding powers. The downtrodden in Yeddaw have no champion, and Lift knows she must seize this awesome responsibility.

Best Of The Stormlight Archive!

Edgewater is an incredibly riveting story circling my favorite surgebinder! I love the first two books a lot, but this one was platinum!

Awesome and short

Really great to get these little novellas that can be finished in a single road trip and be Sanderson through and through! Highly recommend you read this prior to Oathbringer but not necessary.

Worth it!

With the other novels in this series so long, I thought the shirt length of this novella might not be worth it, but I love Lift so much; absolutely worth the credit!

Awesome book

This is a really good book and a nice little break from all the other ones. It has really good characters and if anybody doesn’t like it they’re either crazy or just Starvin stupid.

Made me laugh

A quick, yet likely a very helpful and informative read. It made me laugh a few times. I liked it. I’m excited to dive into Oathbringer

Want a lift? Jump on in and take a ride!!!

Nobody does interesting lovable and not so loveable characters like Brandon Sanderson. In this wonderful book he exposed the characters humanity in quite surprising ways leaving me with hope about individuals in our own world.

Very interesting read

Actually turned out to be a very exciting and informative piece of the Stormlight Archive world! Developed a couple of characters that we wouldn’t have gotten to see much in the main books and connects their actions to the next one

Loved it

This book was so much fun. I was surprised because the two books before this were fairly serious. I thoroughly enjoy it.

Fun story

As for folks wondering why this was released, listen to the postscript for the reasoning.
