I've just started reading The Wager. I'm a sucker for ship based media, and I'm hoping this'll be no exception.

It's my third book of the year after previously reading both A Clash of Kings and How to get rid of a president

I think WoT is more for a younger audience than SoT. Some parts of SoT are much more gruesome than anything I've encountered in WoT.

I haven't finished WoT, I stopped on book 6. There are parts of the books I have a tough time getting through. There are many scenes where there are female characters talking about clothes and men and they just keep dragging on and on... That's not why I read fantasy novels, most of those scenes could have been trimmed imo. SoT doesn't really have that. Anyways, I heard Sanderson did a great job, once I finish SoT I plan to get back into WoT and finish the series.

Interesting, I'll have to read them again and see what I think, I read them all over 10 years ago now.
