Story
Logan Gyre is king of Cenaria, a country under siege, with a threadbare army and little hope. He has one chance—a desperate gamble, but one that could destroy his kingdom. In the north, the new Godking has a plan. If it comes to fruition, no one will have the power to stop him. Kylar Stern has no choice. To save his friends—and perhaps his enemies—he must accomplish the impossible: assassinate a goddess.

A perfect trilogy

Beautifully wrapped up. I enjoyed every minute. I appreciate that Simon Vance read the trilogy — the previous narrator did not do the characters justice.

Story
Kylar Stern has rejected the assassin's life. The Godking's successful coup has left Kylar's master, Durzo, and his best friend, Logan, dead. He is starting over: new city, new friends, and new profession. But when he learns that Logan might actually be alive and in hiding, Kylar is faced with an agonizing choice: will he give up the way of shadows forever and live in peace with his new family, or will he risk everything by taking on the ultimate hit?

I love the way Brent Weeks ratcheted up the tension and stakes. I wanted the characters to have time to rest but he just wouldn’t let them get their respite. It was for the better.

Story
For Durzo Blint, assassination is an art—and he is the city's most accomplished artist. For Azoth, survival is precarious. Something you never take for granted. As a guild rat, he's grown up in the slums, and learned to judge people quickly—and to take risks. Risks like apprenticing himself to Durzo Blint. But to be accepted, Azoth must turn his back on his old life and embrace a new identity and name.

Enthralling dark fantasy like this is rare
Reviewed: 01-30-25
Loved it at every twist, turn, and tumble. So many truly wretched moments that were well deserved and well worth fighting through.

Dalinar Kholin challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar on the line.

Frustrating pacing, embarrassing humor, and cringey dialogue
Reviewed: 01-23-25
The ending was phenomenal though —I liked that. The book could’ve easily been shortened to 50 hours without missing much. Adolin’s arc didn’t have enough runtime tbh

Story
The conclusion of the Mistborn trilogy fulfills all the promise of the first two books. Revelations abound, connections rooted in early chapters of the series click into place, and surprises, as satisfying as they are stunning, blossom like fireworks to dazzle and delight. It all leads up to a finale unmatched for originality and audacity that will leave listeners shaking their heads in wonder, as if awaking from an amazing dream.

I love Brandon Sanderson’s magic systems. Mistborn has one of my favorites. I like how it makes you speculate about hidden aspects to the forces at play. 10/10 great book series.
