Another great entry from Sanderson. I can't give this a 5 star like Mistborn, but boy was it close. The hype train lives on with this book.
Again, the world-building is detailed without being bloated, and the characters are developed well. This book spends more time with some side characters that we saw less of in the first book, which I enjoyed greatly.
There's another great twist at the end, leading to a much more melancholy resolution - and a bit of a cliffhanger ending. This left me wanting more, and eager to dig into the final book to see what becomes of the characters and their story.
Absolutely recommend this to anyone who loves a morally complex and emotionally challenging fantasy novel. So glad I picked this series up.
