The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the ending made me so sad and I’m a baby

A nice culmination of the mistborn series, and overall a good book that was a fairly easy read! I don't personally love how everything was concluded, but I think Sanderson made excellent decisions regardless.

The overall world building by this book was fantastic and the way it ended was so brilliant. Honestly the only reason this doesn't get 5 stars, is the length, some parts could be shorter

Finally got the courage to read this book so I could say I read the entire Mistborn trilogy…and wow what a journey! From the start, of the series, I connected to and loved Vin and with this conclusion, I'm just in awe of the person she grew into. From a skittish street kid who thought trusting others was stupid...to a selfless and loving role model.

This trilogy only takes place over a few short years but the amount of character growth, from all the characters, is fantastic and had me cheering for them every step of the way.

Overall a fantastic and epic fantasy that I highly recommend giving a go, if you haven't already. 💜
