Am I supposed to know…

What on earth is going on..?

Im very new Sanderson’s universe. I came across him because of WoT and absolutely loved how he finished the series. (I loved the way he portrayed a certain gambler, even though it was different to Jordan!)

I’ve loved the first Mistborn trilogy (and the secret histories) and decided to try Way of Kings.

I’m just shy of halfway through Way of Kings and I love the characters, but I have little to no idea what’s going on…

There’s radiants, voidbringers, the almighty and more and I’m more than a bit confused.

My question…

Am I supposed to be confused? If I am, that’s awesome and I love being confused and slowly working things out…

Or.

Should I have more idea what’s going on? In which case, is there a spoiler free background summary anyone could recommend?!
