This book was a lot of fun. A good intro into Sanderson's stuff. Looking forward to reading the other two.

One of the few books that had me laughing out loud in public places.

In typical OSC fashion, this book went deep into political nonsense which took away from the fun fantasy work it had built up. And for really no good payoff. The ending felt incredibly rushed and really kind of easy. Good series, bad ending.

This book was an excellent read. I am amazed at the stories this guy tells. I mean, he'd given up on running and got back into it by putting on sneakers and running 30 something miles after being out drinking all night. So 30 something miles on a whim. That's pretty amazing.

So I give it four stars because it makes me want to get off my ass and run.

However, I got the feeling that if I met this guy in the real world I'd find him to be a cocky asshole. Maybe he's not, but that's the feeling I got.

God this book was great. I haven't had nightmares from reading a book in ages. This book literally had me waking up gasping. I'm glad to be done. I'm a good way.
