3.5. Hate bringing down the average but here's why. The book , like many Sanderson books is slow paced especially at the beginning but lacks that avalanche of payoff at the end. Infact , this ending felt rushed. There was little to no action which is not a bad thing but there was opportunity for it that was not explored. Compared to his other novels, this one seemed to be shortened. We could have had chapters from the wars mentioned since they do have a huge impact on the story. I also didn't find the characters appealing except for one . That is not to say they weren't well written. They were, but I didn't find them all that interesting. Some deaths as well didn't pack a real punch. I know also that he was playing with the concept of reversals but there were two characters whose sudden change though kind of hinted at felt like it was decided early on and not considered again when I think they were better as they were. All in all, I recommend other cosmere books and this was an okay read.
