Most people say this is one of Brandon Sanderson’s least compelling books. While I do understand this viewpoint - it’s maybe slower and has less big magical and political manoeuvrings. However it had huge emotional pay off in the last section of the book, due to the stronger focus on characters. It’s the only one of his books so far that has actually made me cry. As his first published book, I think he did an excellent job.
