Finished The Fifth Season, enjoyed it so much that I have jumped straight into book 2 - The Obelisk Gate. So far I like it slightly less, but it’s still very good. It’s interesting to see an actual book written at least partially in 2nd person - I’m an avid fanfiction reader and the application of 2nd person in fanfics is… usually really clumsy, so it’s refreshing to see that it can be used to great effect.
Personally, I found the Obelisk Gate to be the least engaging of the trilogy (and it’s still good!), but it helps to set up the third book, and the pay off is worth it.
