salamandrareads 's review for:

The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson
4.0
adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

It's really well written, as usual, and very fun to read. Personally I like the setting a lot less than the original mistborn trilogy, but that doesn't change that it's a good book. 

There's too much "funny" sexism from some (especially one) characters, which does fit in the setting, but is very annoying to read and feels unnecessary. It's not too bad, but still tiring and makes the book less of a safe space. The good story and writing made it possible for me to get over those passages, but it would've been better without. 

Still a fun and adventurous read!
