Getting back to the Mistborn universe is such a pleasure. It is my hope that this universe continues to evolve and age as there is so much room for growth both in a timeline and characterizations through it.

Wax, Wayne, & Marsai (who I still can't settle on a pronunciation in my head) are the main trinity of this book. Wax & Wayne -- which I wonder if there is a not so subtle tie in to the moon since their characters could combine into one character if one thinks about it. I digress.

The characters are fun, thoughtful--thought provoking, and with just the right amount of wicked humor. Wayne could have his own book I think--I can't help picture him like the GoT character Bronn. Worldly, smooth, deeply understands the root of characters and is a perfect balance to Wax's detective work and Marasi's big picture/statistical narrative.

The overall story was well put together, there are a lot of questions but the pacing makes you not really focus too much on them. At the end we are left with some rather serious questions and the characters have them too. I feel good that we'll be going down this road further and can't wait to see where Brandon takes us next.

Enjoy this latest installment. I did.
