I absolutely loved the Mistborn trilogy, but while I enjoyed this it didn't grab me in quite the same way.

The characters are wonderful and I loved the western/magic/steampunk vibe, but it took me a while to get into it. Maybe the first Mistborn books were just too good! I was hoping for more of that atmosphere and this was just a little short for me.

Still well worth reading though and I'll definitely carry on with the rest.
