Well shit sanderson definitely knows how to write endings bc this hit just as hard as the ending of the final empire. 

I think the main reason this isn’t a full 5 star is the pacing which is difficult to really explain bc there are pro and cons to it tbh on the one hand its nice that we get to explore the story and its characters so throughly but it does feel a little lengthy at times. I still enjoyed it bc im a slut for good character development and character driven stories in general but a 29h audiobook can feel a little heavy sometimes lol 

Im so curious how this will go on but i might need a little break before i can dive in again

Brandon, you absolute rascal!  You scoundrel!  You can’t play with my emotions like this!  You can’t keep doing this to me!  

Holy heckinbob is this dude ever creative.  I am fully invested in the Brando Sando universe and I am gnawing at the bars of my enclosure for more of anything this man has written.
