This was my introduction to adult fantasy and I couldn't be happier I chose it. Every detail, from the magic system to the world building felt complex enough but not overly complicated and I was able to catch all I had to catch from this book. 

I'm not giving it five stars just because I strongly believe there are things in store in this series that will impress me even more. But it came incredibly close to getting there and so far is the best book I've read in the year. 

Favorite characters so far: Ham, Sazed, Breeze, Dockson and Marsh.

I can safely say that this book definitely got me into fantasy and I will continue to explore the cosmere in the future.
