The Hero of Ages, Part 1 by Brandon Sanderson
5.0
This is a review for all three parts of The Hero of Ages
First and foremost, the production value is amazing, dialogs, score, voice acting. Incredible. Its combination with Sanderson's words? Out of this world.
I feel this book had a lot more depth than the first two, of course they were great too, but they pale compared to this one. I don't think either of them explored identity, religion and depression as well as this one.
I couldn't have imagined the ending based on The Final Empire's story, and I believe that's the thing that surprises me the most. As people well know I don't mind spoilers, I even seek them out from time to time. Yet, the few spoilers I had didn't prepare me for the story, and I even had confirmation of who the Hero of Ages was all along!
All in all, this was an amazing experience. Brandon didn't write a single line that didn't connect with the ending, that didn't go somewhere. This book was filled with explanations and answers to questions I didn't even think to ask in the first place.
The ending was incredibly satisfying as well. I may have cried for 20mins or more because of the adrenaline and everything that was happening but it was worth it.
