state_electrician reviewed Elantris by Brandon Sanderson
Review of 'Elantris' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
It reads like a first novel. It also reads like an early Sanderson, in that it's too long and there is no character development. The writing is simple and the story trope-y. But after the Austen-like mess that was Strange & Norrell it was just the right thing.
