I've read "The Way of Kings" and I really didn't enjoy it. Before I discovered that I didn't like it, I bought Dawnshard while it was on sale. I'm too cheap to not read a book I've bought so I am planning on reading it.

What lore or spoilers should I know to catch me up from tWoK to DS?

Seeing as it is set between Oathbringer (#3) and Rhythm of War (#4), ideally you should have read until the third book already to understand what is happening and what it means, otherwise I think you'll be very confused.

Fair enough but I really didn't enjoy the first book and these books are huge. I'd rather be confused and get through it than buy and read two more massive tomes I likely won't enjoy.
