I read this pretty much within a day.
I enjoyed the storyline - the stakes have been increased significantly by the end of it.
One thing I wish was different is the length of these books. Sanderson is packing full stories in 350 pages and I think his character work and world building are suffering a bit because of that. I believe the books would've benefitted by a bit more bulk to get the reader more invested in those characters and get us more grounded in this world.
Regardless, I enjoyed it quite a lot and plan on picking up the next book in the series as soon as I'm done with this review.
