I love that you're asking for reader feedback! In fact, I'd begun compiling some notes on Warbreaker as soon as I finished reading it (version 4.2).
I agree that Lightsong proves wonderfully entertaining as comic relief, but I think he's something of a flat character until he starts getting involved in court politics. The banter with Llarimar and Blushweaver are great, but perhaps a little too glib too much of the time? I also think that his consistent rejection of Blushweaver's advances makes him seem less human - even if that is intentional early on in the story (since he's a god after all), he seems to gain pleasure from eating, why not sex?
