Burde kanskje tatt en lause mellom bok to kg tre, for dette ble litt mye. Men fortsatt spennende og originalt med en historie som hele tiden tar uventede vendinger.
Tusen takk til min bror som bad meg om å lese Brandon Sanderson! I begynnelsen kan det være litt heftig å bli introdusert for hele Sandersons fantasy-univers, med alle dets intriger, mangfold, styresett og hverdagsliv. For å si det enkelt; hans univers(er) er komplette, kompliserte og så godt sydd sammen at de rett og slett er realistiske. Men så fort du kommer deg inn i settingen (lydbok hjelper på "lesehastigheten") er resten av bokserien absolutt fantastisk! Spennende, kreativ, full av nye idéer. Anbefales på det sterkeste til dem som elsker fantasy.
