Pros & Cons
Pros
All this series are amazing. It is totally original and mesmerizing. Nothing salacious.
Easy to understand, and woven into the progression of the characters and story. Magic that actually makes sense, and the system’s rules prevent it from being used as a scapegoat. Full of surprises, twists and turns that throw it down a path that is no... Read More
Brandon sanderson has created a spellbinding world. Immersive world draws you in. World-building is unique and sooo interesting.
Cons
Overall, i wish i hadn't read the book, as it has sullied my view of the author a bit. The fanatic hype around these books still baffles me. The smurfette principle is bad writing.
Hated this. What an insulting waste of time. Who cares when there's another party to go to and a rich boy to pine over? Not in the slightest.
It's morally simplistic, and the setting feels lifeless. It features graphic violence and acknowledgements of adult *. Unfortunately, these elements don't provide the additional depth or maturity one might hope.
The magic system feels silly and convoluted. The magic is inventive and clearly defined but rendered worthless by its undramatic acquisition and use.
