There are some books that I totally love them when I read them but after a week or two after finishing them I think to myself that they weren't that good. This book is one of them. It has been two years since I first read this book. Now after reading it for the second time I realize how wrong I was. This book is awesome. It has everything. It may not be better than the other two books in trilogy but still it is very good. You get everything from it. Action, twist, mystery, love, etc. I particularity like the transition of Elend to king in the hand of tindail. It was so didactic. And if I have to mention one thing that I didn't like about the book is this: Elend Venture is too good to true. I mean even when he makes mistakes it is to show how good and noble he is. I found this bothering since I don't like perfect characters.

Now I have to compliment the good job of graphic audio. I personally love what they do. Especially that they try to make one for every Brandon Sanderson's books. I totally prefer listening to a graphic audio version than suffer watching a ruined version of the book that has turned to a movie. I hope they start working on Stormlight Archive as soon as possible. I can't wait for graphic audio version of those books. I know they will be perfect.
