Summary/Reflection
Spoilers
I mean, I think this was a really cool read. I struggled a bit to get into the characters inittially in the second era of Mistborn. But I think the gap between the previous book in the series and this one did it well. It is so sweet now to see Wax and Steris as a married couple and as parents. Wayne as well as Marasi also had a great character progression. I think the bigger Cosmere was introduced well. The off-world characters like Moonlight and Twin Soul were really cool but didn’t overshadow our tried and true crew. Marasi turning them down was actually really great as well I thought. The ending also resonated with me. It was just beautifully written and laid out. The one person sacrifices themselves for the world can be a bit of a trope but not in here. I think this book was really tight from start to finish, even with a lot of different elements and moving parts. A strong canditate for my favourite second era Mistborn book.
