This is the first Brandon Sanderson novel I have read. I really enjoyed it from start to finish. The copy I have is Part 1 so I have not read all of it but lucky me I have Part 2 to look forward to and also the second book.
There are many impressive things about this book. The maps and artwork are brilliant and the maps especially as they are a good reference to help my enjoyment of the world that has been created.
I thoroughly enjoyed this from start to finish. The book has a lot going on with many different storylines. The main stories follow a handful of different characters, then there is snippets of history and world building being revealed to us. Then there are the interlude storylines which I find fascinating. These are revealing bit by bit small parts which I am sure will all come together but at the moment it is so much fun just trying to follow it and see where it is going.
The main parts of this focus on three main characters and there stories. Each is different and very good. There are lots of action going on and also much mystery.
This is a very good start to what looks like a large fantasy series.
