This was my first Brandon Sanderson book and I don’t think it’ll be my last, I loved the style of magic, and how much I rooted for Shai to escape.

The best thing Sanderson has written (that I've read so far).

4.8 - such a creative concept to use forgery to piece someone back together. The main character Shai just fascinates you the entire book! Sanderson shows that he can write short books just as well as his 1200 page epics.
