Solid 7/10, fun read. I like the main characters, Wax, Wayne, and Marasi and their banter is fun. Main villain is kind of a weak and really one note villain that feels like more setup for the villain of future books. The callbacks to era 1 are fun and seeing the world evolve from era 1 and the hints at what changed like talk of "the founding" and the different religions based on era 1 stuff is so satisfying. The new power system stuff is awesome. Allomancy and mistborn's magic system in general is probably my favorite magic system ever. Surge binding being a close second.

In comparison to other 4/5 cosmere books, I probably enjoyed warbreaker more because it had more interesting/developed characters and themes. I definitely enjoyed final empire more.
