Ατσαλόκαρδος
by Brandon Sanderson
Very enjoyable!
But very, very predictable. I've heard incredible things about the author, so maybe my expectations were too high. The plot was just... not complex enough, I guessed all but one plot twist.
That being said, it managed to get me very emotionally attached to the characters. I found David extremely annoying for the first 100 pages, but he (and his terrible metaphors, gosh) grew on me. The others, too, but they went from 'eh' to 'oh, I like you', so it's not as big of a jump.
The made-up swear words were a bit cingey, but the overall writing style fit the genre pretty damn well.
Overall, it was a nice experience! I even somewhat enjoyed the not-romance. High praise. :)
