The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson

5.0

The Final Empire was my introduction to the works of Brandon Sanderson. From the get-go, you get introduced to a couple of great characters. Vin is a fantastic character with personal growth that was extremely fun to follow. The mentor/student relationship between her and Kelsier was another highlight of this book.

But the well-written and well-explained magic system is where the book makes itself shine. Everything is worked out so that whatever new information you read about it makes sense.

The Final Empire was a great introduction to Sanderson's works, and I will definitely read more of his books.
