I previously DNFd this book last year in part 3. I picked it back up again, restarted it with some friends and finally finished it. I appreciate the VERY unique magic system, the world building, and the plot. It is a good story. The history Sanderson builds is impressive. I love hidden magic, and found family tropes.

What most people enjoy with the "Sanderslanche", I just don't personally enjoy as much. I may still read on in this series. I am also going to try The Strom light archives as well.
