The Alloy of Law

I'm not against steampunk-type fantasy, so a Mistborn novel in that type of era intrigued me and despite the nay sayers saying that this novel is Sanderson's weakest book, I thoroughly enjoyed it and gobbled it up over a weekend. It doesn't hit the high notes that the original series did in the sense that it doesn't seem quite as epic or worldly as the original trilogy, but I kind of enjoyed the fact that it was fast paced, full of action, mystery and had characters that I instantly loved. I perhaps didn't get quite as emotionally involved with this one as with Vin and Elend's story, but it was highly enjoyable nonetheless. More of an adventure, fantasy romp than an epic, but I think that's okay and was glad to see the world of Scadrial progress and morph into a new era and highly excited to see where it goes from here, especially with numerous revelations toward the end. Not a weak book at all, but an all around lighter adventure in the Mistborn universe.
