Hi, I just stumbled across this book yesterday, and took the rest of the night to read it 
Very well written book, and yes - I will likely purchase it. I havent read all the comments in this forum, as there are 45 pages worth!!! and I'm limited on time right now. However, I noticed 2 issues that disrupt the story for me.
1) How is it that Vasher can blithely say that the royal family has returned blood in their parentage, when returned can't have children?
2) It was never explained why the god-kings would need an heir. If they were getting restless, that would be one thing... but obviously Susebron wasn't getting restless, so why would the priests feel the need to push for an heir at that point?
Just my thoughts.

P.S. Mr. Sanderson asked about Lightsong's humor, I thought it was fairly well done and wouldn't want it changed. I did particularly like the comment about having his priests through stones, as it would be less painful than having to talk to him
