Way of kings is epic in scope. Try Mistborn — it’s faster pace, lower commitment, and showcases Sanderson style and magic system building nicely. Just an aside if you have kids he has a lot of great young adult novels as well. He is simply prolific and enjoyable. I worked through most of one of his writing classes he teaches and it changed how I view fnantsy fiction.
