I really liked the twists and turns of this novel. I also really liked that the POV character was a non-magic user in a magic world. That's an outlook you don't get very often. I mean, even Mat and Perrin of the Wheel of Time have their own things that fit the world. I love how the characters grow closer in a realistic way, and I really hope that Sanderson does follow up, though "To Be Continued" does give that promise.
