I liked it, however the main character seemed "familiar" ... Isaac Send a noteboard - 07/09/2010 04:01:43 PM
Kaladin was very similiar to Kelsier from Mistborn, I felt, both in background and behavior. Kept expecting him to die in the later chapters. I'm actually surprised, given Sanderson's mass killing of major characters in Mistborn, that none of the main characters died, though of course he's got nine more books to do that in :P
