The magic in this story is really cool. Fun and easy read. This is a big book but a great story, so it's easy to keep reading. I wish the ending was better, but there are still two more books, so I'm excited to read more! Could certainly use more female characters and female interactions. I think it passes the bechdel test, but barley, lol.

This is a re-read and now that I have read more of the cosmere the little bits that nod and hint to other things are actually really fun to notice.  I still love the world building and the magic system but the characters are pretty meh.
