A great sequel to a spectacular book, Sanderson switched gears significantly to deliver a lot more information on the Cosmere in this one. The scope of the series has broadened significantly, and I learned *so* much from the different arcs in this book.

I wish a select few characters had received more attention, as one particular one is getting short-changed throughout this series. They had two very strong moments I really loved, but I would love for them to develop more.

The ending sequence to this book was strong, but very different from the previous books. I was still a big fan, though! 9/10
