    I plan to delve into his books again.

    I stopped after, I think, Book 3 of the Stormlight Archive series, but in the end, I really should get back to reading at least some of his work.

          That too. Particularly the 2 novels for Stormlight and Secret History for Mistborn. Lots of things going on in the background of Stormlight 4 that relate to those novels.
