Tbh it is disappointing that White Sand is a graphic novel. I read the first chapter in the Arcanum Unbounded (which includes the graphic novel version and then a normally written novel version of chapter 1.) The novel version was so much better. I gained more knowledge of the characters, world, magic systems, etc. The graphic novel feels like taking pieces from a whole and it falls flat. Due to this reading through volume 1 I felt like I was missing so much, jumping around really fast, and that character emotion's were randomly occuring without a cause. I am going to read all the volumes, to continue in the cosmere, but I am looking forward to jumping back into Sanderson's novel writing.
