The Emperor's Soul

I do not give out 5 stars lightly. A book has to earn such a rating. And Brandon Sanderson has really earned it with The Emperor's Soul. Sanderson won the Hugo award for this novella this year, and it was a well deserved award.

A quick read, I still felt a strong connection to the major characters of the book. Once again, Sanderson creates an entirely unique magic system. His ability to do this repeatedly makes him one of the most interesting fantasy authors.

I won't spoil anything in the book, it is sufficient to say that this is well worth the time to read and I can honestly see myself coming back to read it now and again.
