"A Willie K Review"
Excellent read I give it a good recommendation. The storyline was very fluid for an extended timeline and a medium size book. I enjoyed how the author brought a new take on technology and alien encounters previously written about. Looking forward to the next book in the series and what the new aliens do.

There is not much to review here. If you have read books 1 and 2, book 3 takes it to the next level. This entire trilogy is my favorite read and I have listened to the entire series multiple times. These books are a must read.

Brandon has done it again in this series. This is an amazing read. The only let down of the book is that it wasn’t as long as his books in the series usually are. Brandon has really made a great transition from the original Mistborn Trilogy to a world hundreds of years after it took place. He did a fantastic job of showing advances in technology and civilization and incorporating allomantic and feruchemical powers into this new advanced world. This is a must read to any scifi enthusiast and can even be read as a stand alone without reading the first Trilogy, but there is no reason you shouldn’t. The original trilogy is amazing and by far my favorite books.

I was not impressed with this book at all and had to almost force myself to finish it. Was definitely a let down after the first 2 books in this series. It starts to focus more on their everyday living and politics, instead of action. I finished it only because I liked the first 2 books so much I wanted to see what happened to the characters. This book would be difficult to get through as a stand alone read and feel that you should read the first 2 before attempting it.

For the second book in this series I was curious on how the author was going to continue it going when she had already set up rules how the contestants for the games were chosen. I felt she made a great transition to a second Hunger Game and it kept me interested in the series. Although I did feel it wasn’t quite as good as the first book it was still entertaining and I would recommend it readers of all ages.

The first book in this series sets up a great story line for the series. It had great flow throughout the book and a few twists to keep you on the edge of your seat. I was a little concerned that it was going to be written for younger readers, but feel that it was an excellent read for older readers as well. I recommended to my wife who also read it on her kindle and couldn’t put it down. Overall performance of this book was excellent reat entertainment

I had to listen to just because of the hype. I was not impressed with the actually writing of this book. Good storyline poorly written. But a good read if you don’t care if its written well and want to feel naughty.

A great read, and great narration, storyline was very detailed sometimes to a fault and gave you a feeling of part of the book. I would recommend it those interested in scifi and those who are not

Good read…With the zombie craze in full swing I found this book entertaining but a little redundant. It was a bit slow to start and then seemed to switch gears and even seemed like a different author had written the last half of the book, but it a good way, both halves were good. The ending took me by surprise it seemed to just end and I feel a little more time could have been taken in it, but it would have had to be considerably longer to continue at the pace he was going. All in all I was satisfied

This second book in Brandon Sanderson series was a great continuation and I found myself for the first time lying in bed listening to my book on my iphone just for the simple fact that I couldn’t stop listening. Again his description of battles had me locked in and I felt as if I were there witnessing them. The are many twists in the plot that keep you on your toes and take awhile before they become clear, some are revealed fast. Some you can tell won’t be revealed until the end, but they don’t drag on as in some books.
Another great read
