Tress of the Emerald Sea

Sanderson remains a very hit or miss author for me. Unfortunately, Tress of the Emerald Sea was a big miss.

I was constantly on the edge of dnf'ing, but kept going out of curiosity for the ending and the intriguing worldbuilding. However, my patience wasn’t rewarded. The humor didn’t work for me, and not once did I find the characters or story arcs believable.

The pacing felt odd, but—as usual—Sanderson’s prose kept the story moving and flowing.
