A review by marwareadss
Elantris by Brandon Sanderson
4.0
Rating: 4.25/5
“When you speak of this man, let it be known that he
died in our defense. Let it be said that after all else, Hrathen, gyorn of Shu-
Dereth, was not our enemy. He was our savior.”
What a ride! I have to admit I was a bit nervous going into this because I always heard that ‘Elantris’ is one of Sanderson's (very few) "not excellent" books. I didn't want it to ruin my experience especially since from the books I've read so far, Sanderson is for sure one of my all-time favorite authors. Despite what I thought, this book definitely surprised me. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and the various POVs it had. Hrathen absolutely stole the show for me, I think his redemption arc was done beautifully and I very much enjoyed the way his character was developed throughout the book. More people should give this book a chance, it did not disappoint!
