I was really excited to pick this up because I have heard nothing but great things about this series. I also read and thoroughly enjoyed "Warbreaker" last year, so my next great read from Brandon Sanderson was on my horizons.
Unfortunately, I could not get into this story. I picked it up multiple times over a few weeks and I ultimately found that I did not want to read it. The world building and character development, although written well, was a little too much for me to get into.
Perhaps a different time in the future I will try this again.
