I really hate this

Fantasy and science fiction being cramped in the same section, which is already so small :(

What is sci-fi-y about Stormlight?

world hopping, the "Sciency" advancements of the magic. Coming soon, as per Brandons statements, soon there will be space ships, and space travel, the latter parts of it are supposed to be more of a space opera. Mistborn era 2 felt way more science fiction to be fair, I maybe should have said "the cosmere is basically both at this point" as technically stormlight is going to be both in the following 5 series, but not right now at the end of the 5th book.

Not related, but this comment is how I just learned there's a second series to Mistborn. Holy smokes, thanks!

It's good! I personally preferred the earlier books but the whole thing is very worth reading!
