It's a quick fun read. Nothing entirely earth shattering, just a nice amalgamation of popular trends in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy genres. The plots good and filled with a few unanticipated twists which is really what made the story particularly appealing.
Initially, I hit a point where I just couldn't get into reading this book; in part because of my opinion that the third Mistborn book was rather mediocre. In true Sanderson fashion though, by the time I hit the midpoint of the book I simply couldn't put it down. It was a fun, quick read once that happened. I surprised myself with this book in that I don't read much steampunk/western-fantasy, it was actually good!
First time in a long while I'm actually waiting in anticipation for the next book to be released
I enjoyed most of this book. In particular, I found its take on magic and the world as it was described intriguing and original. The first book in the trilogy I would highly recommend.
Unfortunately, I felt the story of the third book a bit muddled. Hurried in some aspects and drawn out in others. And the parts that were drawn out almost caused me to not finish the series. All that said though, I still felt that it was an interesting read and would recommend it to others.
