Seeing as it is set between Oathbringer (#3) and Rhythm of War (#4), ideally you should have read until the third book already to understand what is happening and what it means, otherwise I think you'll be very confused.
Fair enough but I really didn't enjoy the first book and these books are huge. I'd rather be confused and get through it than buy and read two more massive tomes I likely won't enjoy.
Basically so much stuff happens in book two and 3 of Stormlight that I have no idea if you’ll enjoy it at all.
Tap for spoiler
Rysn from the interludes of Way of Kings has the following things happen to her:
She continues to work with her Vstim and becomes a master trader.
She falls off a giant greatshell (the size of an island) and becomes paraplegic.
She is given a ship.
The Lopen is a hilarious Knight Radiant, and you will quote everything he says.
Additionally the Voidbringers (called Fused or Singers) have returned and are waging a full war on Rosharran factions. These are the souls of ancient Parshmen/Parshendi who fully control the flesh of modern Parshmen made sentient.
This faction is led by Navani and Dalinar Kholin from the mythical castle in a sky from Urithuru, they task Rysn with finding a cache of weapons or supplies to aid in the war effort.
Chiri-Chiri is a that Rysn has that can absorb Stormlight.
In another interlude we know that the crew of a ship heading to Aimia was poisoned by a creature made up entirely of cremlings (basically thing a collective creature) that was “covered in tattoos” as part of their disguise.
I am genuinely not sure you’ll enjoy it, but maybe! May I ask why you didn’t like Way of Kings? It may help me figure out if you won’t like Dawnshard.
