Horror's Greatest Hits
A Goodreads user asked this question about The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive, #1):
How are women treated in this story? Are any of the prominent characters women? I'm just tired of getting invested in high fantasy stories that deprecate, flatten, or completely ignore women.
Pablo Sánchez I would say that women appearing here had edges. I finished the book and so far, the most interesting characters to me are woman.

I don't want to spoil anything but it is quite interesting the role played by women and men in this Sanderson world.

HAVING SAID THAT, I'm a man and the writer is a man so I am not able to give a disaggregated response... I think you should unveil all by yourself.(less)
