review 1: In 1963 Spider Man (or Stan Lee) declared "with great power comes great responsibility." What if those who received great power felt the exact opposite? They would be the Epics of Brandon Sanderson's world. In this world it is those without power who feel the responsibility an...

review 1: Много, много съм разочарована от превода. Ограби ми удоволствието от книгата. Имаше толкова много моменти, в които чета нещо, което няма смисъл, превеждам си го буквално на английски и възкливам "Ааааа!". За книга, която е 22 лв, не сте се постарали никак, Артлайн. Нито с превода...

review 1: i really really enjoyed this short story by Mr. Sanderson In fact, I could barely put it down as I read it over the course of a few hours. I really enjoyed the character Shai and the ability she has to forge great works of art. She is tasked, while improsoned, to create a maste...

review 1: Sanderson's world building is impeccable. His characters are interesting. His world rules are consistent. His writing style is engaging. The illustrations are evocative. The plot is labyrinthine (in a good way). The different cultures and customs make the universe feel expansive....

English

review 1: Sanderson is easily one of my favorite authors. It's a wonder what he can do with concepts such as multiple personality disorder (legion) and forgery (the emperor's soul). After reading it both, I wanted more from the two novellas because I enjoyed them very much. Sanderson's mag...

English

review 1: Hefting this thousand-page monstrosity in no way marred my expectations. I have come to understand that reading Sanderson is exactly as Stephen King described writing to be--an excavation--the story is not so much created as it is uncovered, and being true to the story is what ma...

review 1: Great Conclusion to a Great StoryEnglish/PortuguêsQuite different from the previous books. Moreover, Sanderson is good at doing that; different sequences. Big surprises. In this book the pleasure lies not so much in politics as in the previous book, but in the evolution of the wo...

review 1: Este hombre todo lo que toca, o mas bien escribe, lo convierte en oro. Una imaginación portentosa y una capacidad creativa con unos personajes muy creíbles, muy humanos y con gran profundidad hacen de sus obras unas delicias para leer. En esta ocasión dos relatos cortos, Legión, ...

review 1: This is a really interesting look into the writing processes of the Writing Excuses crew. It's one of my favorite podcasts, and they go out of their way to let us inside for the crafting of a short story each. I could see it being useful for new writers, but I think it's more lik...

review 1: "Sixth of the Dusk" is an interesting story that gives a good sample of Sanderson's writing style and world building skills. Clocking in at under 100 pages, this story is still able to introduce an entirely new world within the Cosmere and give the reader a glimpse into yet anoth...

review 1: As with everything by Brandon Sanderson, reading this book is a delight. Why only three stars, some may ask. Well, to be perfectly honest it may deserve one more, but when I read Brandon's books my expectation is through the roof and though this book was fun, and quite nearly as...

review 1: Excellent beginning to a new series. I was a little worried at the beginning when the author kept jumping around but by the time I was haflway through I was loving the story. The ending is so what you are desiring for the characters throughout the book that when it finally comes ...

review 1: Yet another fantastic novel by Sanderson. This one had a great balance of adventure, character interaction, and humor - Wax and Wayne are wonderfully colorful characters, I especially enjoyed Wayne's personality. The advancement of the story elements of the world and magic system...

review 1: A sci-fi based novelette from Sanderson and one that I actually very much enjoyed. This is a story focused around our main character Jason who works for the PC (Phone Company) which is basically the ruling technological company of this world. The world itself is actually not Eart...

review 1: This trilogy was probably a bit more of a 3.5, but it was still really good and I was completely addicted to reading it. I thought the world building was excellent and the trilogy followed a very good arc, with the story scale constantly stepping out. The reason it's still kind o...

review 1: This is a great installment in Sanderson's middle grade series. A couple things did detract from it, however. It lacked as much of the mystery which drives Alcatraz's actions forward as he solves puzzles. Instead the plot was mainly driven by political and militaristic conflic...

review 1: Que San Sanderson me perdone, pero sí: me alegro de no haberme gastado los cuartos en este librito (diminutivo por su tamaño, no despectivo, que conste).A lo mejor (seguramente) influye el hecho de que no conozca el vídeo juego en el que se basa, aunque experiencias pasadas (la n...

review 1: 2.5 These books in no way compare to the awesomeness of Sanderson's adult fiction. I'm going to finish the series but I don't think it relates to the rest of his cosmere. I'm rather curious at this point to get to the Hushlands and see how it differs, as well as have a better fee...

review 1: Amazing.There is so much in this story about faith, hope, and acceptance. The way Brandon Sanderson crafts trust into his characters, but balances that trust with skepticism, then throws them into situations that challenge them, that create conflict, that force them to either gro...

review 1: Such a good book. Possibly a little slow to get into, which is what I tend to find a lot with Sanderson's books. But once it got going I got really into it. Particularly part 2. Found it very difficult to put down once I reached the last couple hundred pages. The story, as always...
