The Mistborn series creates exactly the kind of fantasy world I enjoy: all the "magical powers" have well-defined rules; there is an interesting main plot with something at stake; there is an extensive mythology behind the universe; and there are a large number of fun, deep characters. All of it cre...
I'm annoyed that the title on the cover is Mistborn, when the title page clearly states that the title is Mistborn: The Final Empire. Maybe I'm being too particular, but if the book is titled "Mistborn", I would expect the entire series to be in that book. Otherwise, why not put The Final Empire on ...
This was my introduction to Sanderson, and I can say I was impressed. I enjoyed Sanderson's take on magic, the premise behind the use of metals is an intriguing concept. His characters are charismatic and likable, though I, personally, would have liked to hear a bit more about their backgrounds. M...
The "Mistborn" are suppose to be of noble birth, however in Brandon Sanderson's first book of the series of the same name it turns out this is not the case and it proves to be the undoing to the evil seemingly immortal Lord Ruler in the end. The first book of the "Mistborn" finds both tropes and fan...
Reseña en español de El Imperio Final en mi blog: Click Aquí4.5 Stars: it was almost perfect. The plot is really original because it starts with a different setting if you compare it to other epic fantasy stories (which I won't reveal here because it's sort of a spoiler but trust me, it's great). Th...
It's extremely difficult for something to live up to its reputation. Right before this novel, I read another fantasy book with a sterling reputation that very nearly sneaked onto my DNF shelf, so I began this one with a certain amount of trepidation. I've had trouble reading lately, for a variety of...
I feel very conflicted about this book.I think Brandon Sanderson is an excellent writer but there was just some things missing in The Final Empire.First of all, it took me waaaay to long to finish it. It was due back at the library so I had to wait a while to pick it up again. Sanderson is obviously...
There are some big advantages to coming to a series late, like being able to read the entire series back-to-back rather than wait those long painful months until the next exciting instalment. I guess that makes me a "binge" reader.Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series is classic fantasy in just about ...
This a book that came VERY highly recommended, so much so that I just had to see what the hype was about. My husband and I read this book together every night before bed for a week...yes, it took us an entire week to plod through it. The majority of the book is spectacularly just OK. The premise is ...
Well now it's official...I have joined the Sanderson fandom! You guys were all right about this one. It was such an amazing book! This was a buddy read with my husband Brent, as we usually read most fantasy books together. I know that a few of you are also reading this book right now, so please ...
