Everyone talks about the slaves becoming radiants and how that was a good trade, but remember Dalinar did this for what he saw a normal men, not for magical knights. That was just a bonus
Right, they saved his life and he made a promise. He was just simply doing everything he could to keep his word. Ya know just normal bondsmith behavior.
Oh absolutely! Dalinar was doing his best to keep up his word on freeing them. It was always about repaying a debt to, at the moment, strangers who were crazy enough to face countless enemies in order to save his life and the lives of his men
Thats true, to me those comment read like "Sadeas had no idea how valuable Kaladins crew were, what a dope". Now of course Dalinar didnt know how valuable they were either, but he cared enough about his men to investigate and find out
Dalinar and Kaladin have probably my favorite dynamic in the series. Kaladin is so snarky and angsty, and Dalinar simply ignores it and proceeds to say the deepest stuff ever. I love it.
@@kyle18934 he is one of the more wild radiants but dalinar at least in some respect knew what he was getting, not a full day before kaladin showed up rallied, saved, and took command of dalinar a army, did shardbeeer level work vs a pashendi army and then finally charged and wounded a shardbearer to save dalinar.
@Valigus was dalinar awake to see kaladin sheard through the parshendi? he does fight like a madman when pushed into a corner. he deffinately does hold himself differently than other people.
It is worth your time. What starts out as a rather bleak and dreary logbook of suffering (and some pretty good intrigue and world building, because yknow, fantasy) but it turns into this massive sprawling adventure. Very much worth your time.
remember that light eyes in the beginning debated between putting him in the army or as a bridge runner... he could have gotten a radiant if that official felt differently that day...
I find the best quote is his speech denying Odium his pain. He does one of the most painful things a man can do, accept his past mistakes where his fault, but without them he could not be who he was today
Really great voice acting from Andy Clemence as Dalinar Kholin and Robbie Gay as Kaladin Stormblessed. Amazing production value from the GraphicAudio team!
I am obsessed with this series. I'm a 33yo Dad and I cry hard at so many of the scenes in this. I gotta read it when the family is asleep to hide my shame.
Looking at the Wheel of Time TV show, where Brandon Sanderson consulted since he took over the last 3 books from Robert Jordan after his passing, and how they literally ignored all his consultation and fucked up the story... my fear is great that no TV show will ever be worthy of the Stormlight Archives or Mistborn.
@@Lunatic108 The key difference here is Sanderson is keeping strict control of all his IP and demanding to be heavily involved in the production of any of his books as a prerequisite of him signing the rights away.
Wait, does GraphicAudio sound this good? Cuz if that's the question... yes, a thousand times yes. This is how I experienced Stormlight Archive for the first time, and I'm so glad I did. It brought the whole world to life in a way I'd only dreamt of.
@Dangre Noodel Google it (or whatever your preferred search engine is). This clip is from the GraphicAudio version of Stormlight. It's an audiobook but with music and sound effects and individual voice actors. That IS what you asked, yes? "Does it sound this good?!?!" Or did I misread that?
@@Atamastra My mind has never disappointed me so much in my life. As soon as I put up the comment I realized it was a company. I had just woke up. I was asking what Graphic Audio was. My brain betrayed me
Dude, I loved the images at the end. Kaladin and Dalinar, dirty and bruised faces. After going into war for so long and specially after such a crazy battle, they have to look like this. It completed the scene so well
In the middle of reading TWOK. Thank you for helping me understand what the Slave Glyphs are supposed to look like; I’ve been imagining them looking like kanji for about 500 pages.
you can find it online, the physical books have some pages with pictures and a few of them are on glyphs. one is on kaladins slave brands in particular
I know I'm pretty far behind, as I've only finished TWoK, but man....I don't remember ever reading anything as voraciously as this, not even the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series....Kaladin is one of the most intriguing characters ever, and so is Dalinar. Shit, even Sadeas is fascinating.
Kaladin was literally already worth a full shardbearer at this point, and had just fought half an army of listeners One shardblade is such a steal Kaladin has to date actually 100% lost like 2 real fights, 1 while hospitalized, and the other against 12 immortal fuzed, and an unmade possessing a man with 2 blades and full plate(giving access to 9 surges) while being distracted and defending another person, all of this alone, and he was like a few spheres from winning when someone else came in and felt the final blow on a single enemy
Unpopular opinion but everyone has a price / value. It all depends on the bidder and the product. In your mother's eyes, you have move value than a thousand suns but to a weary stranger by the road side, your worth less than a speck of sand. A mans value is assessed by how much power they have and how much they are of service. All men serve, some more so than others.
I really love the production value of these GraphicsAudio readings. but they mix the music and sound effects WAY too loud. especially during battles and big scenes, you can't hear the words being read out.

There was also how they became an elite fighting force even before they started becoming wind runners.

"Strickingly paternal"
DALANAR YOU CAN'T JUST ADOPT ANY DAMN PERSON
Daddynar does what he wants lol
@@ZachTaylorReads fair.
Proceeds to Adopt the continent.
Your comment won’t stop him, because he can’t read!
@@derekmann8239
..
*damn*
a shard blade for the loyalty of a upcoming radient... that's a good deal
Not just any, kaladin, who could solo a full shardbearers before becoming a radiant, certainly a good trade
@Valigus that's true, although he is one of the more wild radiants. a high potential cost for high reward
Spoliers for oathbringer
He didn’t just get a radiant he bought a whole upcoming radiant order
@@kyle18934 he is one of the more wild radiants but dalinar at least in some respect knew what he was getting, not a full day before kaladin showed up rallied, saved, and took command of dalinar a army, did shardbeeer level work vs a pashendi army and then finally charged and wounded a shardbearer to save dalinar.

This is the second way of kings thing I’ve seen today. I’ve never heard of this series, but I might be running to the library tomorrow to find it.
Oh!!!! It’s such a rabbit hole to go down, it’s my absolute favorite series of all time!
Its in my opiniomthe best fantasy series since Lord of the Rings
It is worth your time. What starts out as a rather bleak and dreary logbook of suffering (and some pretty good intrigue and world building, because yknow, fantasy) but it turns into this massive sprawling adventure. Very much worth your time.
Same
The books are great. But the audiobooks are done very well too. I personally prefer the audiobook since I can listen to it while driving.
He's also getting a Knight Radiant, and a company of windrunners. That's what you call a lopsided trade. Sadias got robbed. 😂
Bro fr !!!!!
remember that light eyes in the beginning debated between putting him in the army or as a bridge runner... he could have gotten a radiant if that official felt differently that day...
Note to self. Spoilers are in these shorts😢
@@MJZA93 spoilers in really any content. I'd avoid it if youre reading the story
You could say he was lacking in vision. 😂

Dalinars journey is a tough one. That odium speech is so intense, and right in the middle of a sanderlanche
Never forget journey before destination. You must carry your bridge first before you can walk over it
I love this scene where kaaldin and ainsr are slowly starting to meet
Dalinar sure knows how to make an impression, that’s for sure
Really great voice acting from Andy Clemence as Dalinar Kholin and Robbie Gay as Kaladin Stormblessed. Amazing production value from the GraphicAudio team!

no shame brother!
me too bro
One day you might like to read it to them.
Don't feel shame for crying
34 y/o Dad here. Same. The older I get, the more I resonate with Dalinar.
I just read this for the first time yesterday! couldn’t put the book down at 2:30am
Omg that battle I just new everyone was going to die! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time reading it, the whole thing is just soooo powerful
Ah, a fellow victim of cosmere-derived insomnia
I finished Rhythm of War in three days on release. Happens to the best of us honestly.
@@EonNShadow very common occurance with high quality books. And I havrnt seen a low quality cosmere book yet.

This is probably my favorite moment in epic fantasy
Daddynar doing Daddynar things
it was at that moment i knew, Dalinar would always try to do the right thing
this moment has a lot more weight when you learn about dalinar's past and how far he's come
“Honor is dead sir, but I’ll see what I can do”
When I read this scene for the first time, I cried like a little baby 🤧. Dalinar and Kaladin are two of the best character I have ever read.
I started reading this series like a month ago, i'm halfway trough Oathbringer, i can't stop!
I've read this book 3 times, but maaaaan does it sound this good?!?!
Wait, does GraphicAudio sound this good? Cuz if that's the question... yes, a thousand times yes. This is how I experienced Stormlight Archive for the first time, and I'm so glad I did. It brought the whole world to life in a way I'd only dreamt of.

They are all on Audible, and it's AMAZING.
For My honor? Unquestionably.
I love dalinar
Dalinar might be the best protagonist in all of fantasy honestly.
Kaladen: *UNYIELDING RACISM AGAINST LIGHTEYES*
Dalinar: Sit down, Son. Want a cookie? They’re fresh from the oven.
Kaladin: Oodles and Kaboodles of hatred and trauma.
Dalinar: Guess I'll have to adopt him 🤷🏼♂️
THIS moment right here is when Dalinar became my favorite character!

I absolutely love this moment, and this made me want a movie version even more
Nah, a movie couldn't do the book justice. A really good animated series though? It would be insane.
What a great series!
Manly tears.
I think that was the working title for way of kings
@@ZachTaylorReads agreed
A Shardblade for dozens of Knights Radiant - the trade of the century. Bravo wise King Dalinar 👏🏼 Brando Sando is a genius.
Especially since as a Knight Radiant himself, he could form his own Shardblade anyway.
I love the graphic audio versions of Brandon Sanderson's books.
Graphic Audio is supreme
My favourite part...❤❤❤
this is my favorite part
Great stuff
Very emotive.
This is almost as good as when finally excepted the man he was. In a badass scene that has spoilers lol.
Shout out to Graphic Audio for this amazing version
I cried while reading this

Oh just wait till you get to Oathbringer, it just hits so hard
"He was the best guy arouunnnddd"
“What about all the people he murdered?”
Life before death...
There is a potential in this series to make something legendary as the Peter Jackson Lotr. Pls future someone dont F it up.
Dang, badass!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
I can't wait to see this on the big screen in 2037
House Kohlin supremacy😊
Chills
That Dang dad is the best
That whole chapter with the battle on the Tower was one of the best book sequences I’ve ever read
Mistborn is the more action packed series, but God damn, when the action ramps up in Stormlight Archives, it is absolutely riveting.
Perfection
DALINAR "THE GOAT" KHOLEN!
Well that sold me on the book.
When does this happen ? I’m at part 1 of the book reading between kaladin’s life as a slave and shallan
@@Abrhm77 I made this comment 7 months ago and I realized I still haven’t started on them.
@@C0ldIron 😹
@@Abrhm77 This is basically the end of the first book
Based Dalinar
Love it! Where can you get this audio again?? I know it's online somewhere haha
Audible has it, it’s the graphic audio version. You can also find a lot of the clips from it here on UA-cam.
Kaladin was literally already worth a full shardbearer at this point, and had just fought half an army of listeners
One shardblade is such a steal
Kaladin has to date actually 100% lost like 2 real fights, 1 while hospitalized, and the other against 12 immortal fuzed, and an unmade possessing a man with 2 blades and full plate(giving access to 9 surges) while being distracted and defending another person, all of this alone, and he was like a few spheres from winning when someone else came in and felt the final blow on a single enemy
Uhhhhh! This make me want to try reading the rest the the Stormlight Archives, but I’m not ready to start that journey yet 😫 (kinda a slow reader)
Audiobooks REALLY help with that
Shardbearers cant hold ground.
But those men? They can. And they did.

Graphic audio has done a fantastic job 😢👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
For some reason I always think Kaladin’s voice would sound like Batman’s voice in my head.
“I am stormblessed” 😞

Everybody gives Sanderson credit for his world building which is great. But I think the wtf moments in books is way way better
What audio book version is this?
If they make a live action movie from this Chris Hemsworth needs to play dalanar, Robert Downey jr witt
Y’all really like this series. Maybe I should give it another try. Maybe if Travis Baldree did the voices I would like it more
where is the last drawing from?
Why did i f'ing watch this, after just starting kings p2... f me that was dumb
Whee is this audio from?
It’s the graphic audio version
Is that optimus prime?
Dalinar is best character I'm sorry. Kinda a shame he was kinda sidelined after oathbringer.
Dalinar looked less paternal and more like the coomer in that last panel tbh.
