“Faith means that it doesn't matter what happens. You can trust that somebody is watching. Trust that somebody will make it all right.”
The Hero of Ages knocked me on my ass and rocked my world. Though middle was a bit of a slog to get through, the last 200 or so pages were a whirlwind of resolution and satisfaction, making up for any areas I struggled in 100 times over. The little nuggets of Sanderson's foreshadowing finally emerged, revealing a masterfully crafted, meticulously detailed trilogy I can compare nothing else to. Thank you, Brandon Sanderson. Thank you, Hero of ages...you know who you are.
