Im definitely becoming a fan of Sanderson's novellas; I like being able to enjoy his writing without having to dedicate a million hours to his longer books. That being said, Legion was not my favorite of his books that I've read. I think I was going into it expecting a more character driven story (similar to The Emperor's Soul), but there wasnt much development for any of the characters in Legion. The plot was super interesting though and I probably will go for the next book in this series. There is def a lot of potential to explore how the human mind works and copes with traumatic events. I am interested to see where this story goes!
