A review by wouterk
Calamity by Brandon Sanderson
4.0
I truly enjoyed this last part of the Reckoners series. While generally, I felt I was only partly the target audience of the series, especially the second half of this book took a turn for the best. Of course Sanderson is famous for his Sanderlanches and this book is no exception and it even hit me in the feels big time. So the series pays off!
I think Sanderson really succeeds well in presenting an interesting world with supervillains and heroes. and in this particular book we face both prof and calamity (yes the big red star/sun-thing that is the cause of all the Epics and is ever present).
The series is action packed, somewhat superficial in terms of characters as an exchange to high pacing and interesting world building. I think that is the part that resonated less with me. But like I said, I loved the ending. A good palate cleanser!
