Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell / Perfect State

2.75 stars.

It was an enjoyable short story, but I could not connect to the characters. The plot was pretty simple, although the setting is still interesting. I would have appreciated more explanation about the world and the shadows in typical Sanderson's style, but due to space constraints I am aware it gets tricky doing so. I am curious to know more in detail how this story and characters will connect to the rest of the cosmere.

Predictable but reminded me oddly of a Dr. Who episode.

Sanderson: Short, sweet, superb.

Another solid novella from Sanderson. He quickly crafts a world, drops you in to it and the pace moves along so fast that you're surprised when it's over.
