The Final Empire

Holy fucking shit I could have never seen the reveal at the end coming and yet there were SO many hints!!! I figured what the Lord Ruler wearing metal meant pretty fast, but the rest??? insane. insane novel 

4.5 rounded upAfter many years, my mind is unchanged, Brandon Sanderson is a true master in his genre. His ability to built such an epic world with so many different rules is mind-blowing. What is surprising is that with how elaborate the world in Mistborn is, his style of writing is intelligible even for a reader unfamiliar with epic fantasy. At first I had a problem with how anticlimactic one part of the story was but after some time to think I really do believe it was necessary. It shows that not everything ends with a boom even if the build up suggests otherwise. It added the element of surprise, definitely. I'm really glad I finally got my hands on the whole trilogy and am able to familiarise myself with the whole story.
