"Well Ill ascend to no. 3 then"
There was never a dull moment, and it keeps you guessing. Moving on to book three.
"Boring, but good by the end"
It's a lot like taking a strong laxative: not much fun in the middle, but an overall worthwhile experience.
"Sanderson Doesn't Disappoint"
Having read the first two books in this series, I can now say that I thoroughly enjoy the world and characters depicted in the Mistborn series. Frankly, I can't get enough.
I've found this book appealing because the story plays out in a dystopia of epic proportions. The characters, both good and bad, all bear the types of flaws that give them unique and complex personalities.
The narration is excellent.
I finally understand why other reviewers rave about the complex systems of magic created by this author.
"Good story great performance"
I felt this book was great to listen to. Not quite as good as the first book but it's still worth listening to.
"Unexpected Twists"
This author has a flare for the dramatically unexpected. It's wonderful that you never see it coming, even when you might have an inkling of what is the catch. The escapes, victories, and who loses are always delightfully unique. You'll love this next installment of the series and be hungry for the finale.
"Really enjoyable!"
The only thing I disliked was the relationship story arc, it seemed to take up too much of the story mid way making it feel slow 3/4 the way through.
"I balked at the foreign concepts at first"
Once I allowed the story to unfold I was dragged in and looked forward to my next listen. It also gave me a greater appeciation of my world and gardens. Strong character development made the story come alive and easy to follow.
"Great narrator"
the narrator is amazing. a rich voice as well as distinct choices for each of the characters really brings this book to life
"Appropriately Bleak"
Less action, more political intrigue. I recommend this if you enjoyed the characters of Book 1, because Sanderson focuses on character interactions, personal and political, here. Now, as someone who did book 1 with Graphic Audio, I miss the full cast and effects. Still, Kramer's mellow delivery lends an appropriately Bleak air to the proceedings. This reading is worth listening to.
There may be slight ending fatigue, but go ahead and finish.
