Disciple of War

endearing, entertaining and exciting. I'm buying the 5th book to read next, even tho I don't always enjoy his writing style. Some sentence choices are cumbersome, the author overexplains frequently. but I have also enjoyed several truly masterful scenes in this series. and like I said, the story is interesting enough to make me buy the 5th installment. thank you Mr Manning for some worthwhile entertainment.

A great experience well worth your time. Sanderson is a really stand up guy who actively engaged with his fans on an almost daily basis on top of releasing 1 or 2 books a year sometimes more!

The only complaint I have is that I've been completely caught up since the series debuted and I devour these books almost as fast as they're released. The storytelling is concise when needed, recapping and reintroducing characters is not used to pad the length, and the hard magic system is well crafted and adjusted through each book in explanation to match the characters growth. I see a lot of Mordecai in the protagonist, though, but I loved him so it's just a plus for myself. If you've found this series first, I highly recommend the first to tide you over until new releases!
