As I generally say with Sanderson books, many of my past criticisms hold true. I felt that is was pointlessly long, and the excessive exposition was particularly noticeable in this book compared to the others. The pacing was fairly touch and go, though I commend Sanderson for getting to the action slightly sooner than the final 80 pages of a 400+ page book *cough cough* *Stormlight* *cough* *and also the first two Mistborn books too*.... The world building was great as expected, and I really liked how most of the characters (new and old) completed their character arcs.
All in all, this was a fun trilogy to read! I definitely think this was my favorite one of the three, which is saying a lot considering the monumental task of wrapping up such a large story, but he did it again! Onto the next one. Now if only I could read his books as fast as he writes them...
