Knights Radiant who fly too near find their Stormlight suddenly drained, so the voyage must be by sea. I couldn't identify any major changes from WoR to oathbringer.The Overview: When a ghost ship is discovered, its crew presumed dead after trying to reach the storm-shrouded island Akinah, Navani Kholin must send an expedition to make sure the island hasn’t fallen into enemy hands. And nale was characterized pretty well as far as I can tell. We see the 4th ideal arc from his perspective that is in oathbringer. Szeth was nominally allied with nale at the end of WoR and it makes total sense when you pick up with him in oathbringer.

Szeth lift and nale are side characters that have seemingly complete stories if you go from WoR to oathbringer. I don't feel that it's possible that I missed important parts without edgedancer because everything flows pretty well. And the same with dalinars parts outside of oathbringer. Maybe if you only read WoK then skipping shallan would be cool but all of the books feed into each other and I would have missed soooooo much in WoR without the shallan parts of WoK. Bad pacing and poor characterization can make something unreadable. Multiple things can make something unreadable. We need your help to maintain a safe and spoiler-free community!
