2022 Re-read:

I write these words in steel, for anything not set in metal cannot be trusted.

On my third read through I still agree with the 4/5 rating. I can't articulate why the book doesn't deliver a perfect score but the first half of the novel is either a little slow with characters and plot or something else.

Whatever the reason it's a temporary fault because the story does eventually click and have an amazing finish, but it's weighed down by the first half of the book.

There are significant revelations for powers and mythology in the book and never a dull read.

2018 Re-read: Continuing with a five year re-read of the Mistborn trilogy.

Which was more potent? The pain of memory, of the pain of forgetting?

Still good and still agree with the 4/5 rating.

Then they came. Two dark shadows of death in the night. Ravens in the mist.

Another excellent installment in the Mistborn series that picks up perfectly from Mistborn #1. The book further explores the metal magic system with exploration of of Feruchemy but doesn't ignore the Allomancy created in Mistborn #1. I really enjoyed this book but am giving it four stars because compared to Mistborn #1, or how good Mistborn #3 is, it's just not on the same level. A great read, definitely recommend this book and series to fans of fantasy/sci-fi.
