I am 50% in and I am confused on the plot. Anyone that read it can help me out? Who is Kaladin fighting and why is the war being fought to begin with? And why does everything have to do with bridges? There has to be more to war than that I understand one of the the enemys is the Parshendi? But who are they exactly? I like the book but there is a lot going on

If you cannot be helpful, then don’t answer.

The entire forum is a joke because of one post that's very easy to ignore?

So you don't want to do any research yourself, you want others to spoon-fed your answers to you?

BTW, reading that wiki was exactly what I did when I had those questions. And I got my answers.

You came father than I did. I tried reading one Sanderson book, and I gave up on it after a few chapters. Superhero fantasy in a multiverse setting is not something I ever fancied, so I don't know why I even gave him a chance.

Since HLS has exited, I have a question...

I read the Mistborn series and enjoyed it. I was planning on reading more Sanderson. Can his other series be read as standalone series? I don't need/want to understand every nuance/reference to series interdependence.

Thanks. And I think this is a great site.

The Stormlight Archive can be read separately, but as this thread indicates, it can be confusing in the beginning (Sanderson doesn't bother to infodump you to death with every aspect of his worldbuilding right at the start of the book). It's much longer and more complex than the Mistborn series. If you're impatient and want to understand everything that's going on at once, not wait for RAFO (as I was), then there's the wiki.
