I really, really enjoyed this book. I’m not sure if I’ve blessed or cursed myself by making this my first Brandon Sanderson read, but it was excellent either way. This story has a great mix of sci-fi, historical fiction, mythology, a bit of romance, and an unserious MC. I enjoyed the world (both, iykyk) and character building immensely, and I fully intend to pick up more from this author to explore his other worlds.

For being Brandon’s worst secret project book I liked this a lot. More than tress I think. I loved the project Hail Mary type inspiration he took and the mix of sci-fi/fantasy. Great read
