This series is truly a standout of the entire genre. Every book peels back the curtain just a little bit more and gives further insight into this insane world the author has created. The sheer amount going on raises questions of just how it’ll all eventually be tied up, but for now I’m just enjoying the ride.

This was such a disappointing read and definitely the worst of the year. The first half had a decent amount of promise and really felt like it could have been something, but it just got worse and worse. Filled with exposition dumps for no reason, heavy overusage of the same phrasing over and over again, and just an overall pretty boring conflict left this feeling flat.

While in many ways, this book is the antithesis of Mistborn, it still feels so much like Mistborn in a way that I didn't realize I had missed from Sanderson's writing style. The stakes and story are just as epic with this being part of the Cosmere, but it feels much more self-contained. A really enjoyable read!
