Elend: there were books involved."
Okay, let's just get into it. I don't know, but I didn't like this book as much as the first one. No, it wasn't bad, but I enjoy it little less than the first one. But I admit the last 100 pages is FREAKIN MARVELOUS without a doubt.
The ending o

Great sequel to the first book. I enjoyed the expansion of the theology and history behind the Deepness and the Well of Ascension. That alone was what kept me hooked. It was good to see Elend and Vin continue to grow as characters and they make for a very powerful couple. The only negative I can think of was the build up of Luthadel's siege. I feel like the armies kind of sat there for far to long with nothing happening. The failed diplomatic attempts and Cett making his way into the city withou ...more

Whoa!! I'm glad I finished it. It took me a very long time as you can see from the starting date to finish. The plot at the beginning was a little slow paced but it got better and better towards the end. I'm a fan! ...more

Wow. Brandon Sanderson really outdid himself with this installment in his Mistborn Series. I was thoroughly impressed with the first book in this series, but this second book really just showed me how much Sanderson has planned for this world he's created. His world building continues in this book to be fantastic and realistic and reliable, and his characters somehow end up being even more likable than before. Vin grew on me so much more in this book, and Elend was just as wonderful as ever. Our ...more

Desde etapas muy tempranas de este libro me di cuenta que iba a ser un tono muy diferente al del primero, y uno menos enganchador.

Sin hacer spoilers, había algo muy prominente en El Imperio Final que era una de las cosas que más me encantaban que está completamente ausente en este libro, y todos los cambios que trajo consigo hicieron que la primera mitad de este libro fuera muy, muy pesada.
La intriga política es decente pero no tan fresca como la de Elantris. Elend y Vin son buenos protagonistas

The first 2/3rd of the book definitely suffered from "second book" syndrome but was definitely important for the progression of the plot. Still all the praise to Brandon Sanderson. Once 2 characters figured their 'stuff' out things got better in my opinion. The last 1/3rd of the book I was on the edge of my seat. Sanderson is a master of word, plot, character, magic system, everything! Can't wait for the next one! A Brandon Sanderson addict for life!!
