This was such a fun book. It wasn't super deep, Sanderson's prose are a little awkward, as I tend to find them to be, but I enjoyed the characters and the story a lot. The way Sanderson has developed the magic to fit this version of the world was so clever and seeing how the world has progressed in general was fascinating. It worked perfectly as a "pallet-cleanser" (not in a bad way) between big chunky fantasy books and classics. I really enjoyed it.
