A review by soren_corbett
The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson

4.5

While slow at places, this book is a worthy successor with outstanding world building, an interesting and complex magic system, brilliant sub plots, excellent political intrigue, and compelling characters that you can’t help but fall in love with. An excellent romance subplot and more background on characters from the first book keep the reader hooked and interested throughout the entire story, and the author does a brilliant job maintaining suspense.
