From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, a special gift edition of Edgedancer, a short novel of the Stormlight Archive.

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.

Review of 'Edgedancer' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A whole novella of one of my favorite side characters in the series! YES PLEASE.

Lift is such a fun (awesome) character but her role in the main plot is just in passing. Here we get to explore some of her backstory, meet one of the cultures of Roshar which has been left in the background until now, and spend some time with a herald. It's a really fun story with plenty of humor, action, and insight.

As I mentioned with Dawnshard, the novellas to the Stormlight Archive are all worth reading. Do yourself the favor of checking this one out.
