Personajes carismáticos, un sistema de magia casi reinventado y un mundo con guiños al que ya conocíamos. Peleas impresionantes al estilo western. Lo único que no me agradó del todo fue el villano, queda opacado por Rashek :p

I went into this expecting to have my socks blown off. That did not happen immediately. Not because of anything the book does or does not do, but because of me, my expectations. I expected to be transported right back into the old world. Not the impossible parts, there would be no Elend, Vin or Sazed, but I thought the world Harmony had JUST created would be as I last saw it. Spook and Breeze would be there, you know. Silly me, it says so in the description that this takes place in a wildly different time period. Oh, well.

Still I gave it a fair shake, this is Brandon Sanderson after all, he never truly disappoints...although he's hurt me several times.

I fell in love with Wayne and Marasi! Wax was cool and Elendel is no Final Empire but I like it for that. Wayne and his dueling canes, I am so glad he had those where Wax had his guns. Steris was the character I liked least but I came to understand her in the end and that's worth something.

I fell deeper with every mention and expansion of the previously setup lore and mythology. So much has changed from the original trilogy to this one and, therefore, so many things in this world have been CLEARLY influenced by Kelsier and the crew, what they accomplished. Man, this feels so REAL and developed.

There is one character I'll miss: Hundredlives.

Things I look forward to: the roughs, twinborn folk, genealogy, Mr. Suit, Wax and Wayne's antics, Wayne in every way, Marasi, Rennett, delving deeper into the lore and the overall plan. This is going to be good.
