I haven't read any of Sanderson's other works, and jumped right in on the Way of Kings. It was terrific. I was engrossed in the story. I could happily ignore everything around me for hours while reading. I read quite a bit of fantasy, and this was very good. One of the best fantasy novels I've read since The Name of the Wind.
I followed it closely on it's heels by the first two books in the Inheritance Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin.
