Really nice read. I loved the character development and description of relationships as they evolved. Cool foreshadowing in the chapter intros too. I will be finishing this series.
Anybody who has read and liked ‘The Name of the Wind' should pick this one up. Easy to read, and high quality all the way through.
Rating: 6.8/10
I started out enjoying it but the plot didn't really go anywhere. It's almost as if the author couldn't decide between Galen or Regal being the primary antagonist. After almost half the book revolving around Galen's harsh training methods and his cruel interactions with Fitz, Galen was killed off almost instantly as the book approached its climax. Additionally, Regal just received a slap on the wrist for plotting to kill and overthrow his brother. Just seemed unrealistic to me and the final sequence did nothing for me. Also, nothing happened with Fitz possessing the Wit. This was emphasized so much, especially in Fitz's tumultuous relationship with Burrich but nothing ever came of it besides him bonding with a couple puppies. I had heard such good things about this series that my experience left me a bit disappointed. I might read the next books in the series if I have time but right now, Mistborn is appealing to me much more.
It's a slow read, but the ending was pretty full-packed with action.
