Elantris by Brandon Sanderson
3.0
Not the best Sanderson novel, but there are some brilliant original ideas here.
What lets the book down are the inconsistent narrative pacing and inconsistent character belief systems.
Raoden is supposed to be the perfect embodiment of virtuousness and Sarene always roots out liars and schemers… but when Raoden lies multiple times for weeks on end, she doesn’t really care. At one point she was even like ofc! How silly of me!
I would love to see where the Sanderson would take this world 20+ years after the first book.
