Book #3
On one hand when the first book had arguably a simplistic plot, I credit Brandon to make plot of his second book really convoluted and interesting. Last 100 pages of the book were so exciting that I nearly forgave the author for the long chapters of boring political discussions and soliloquies.
It turned out to be that the three-armies-plotting-to-conquer-Luthadel was just a side plot while the main story was about secret hidden in the well of ascension. Just like book one, really loved how secrets are being revealed one by one. By far, Sazed's character has been the most intriguing. I loved his overall character arc where he went from loving and knowing everything about religions to losing all his faith while he learnt how religions and prophecies can be used to misguide people.
Can't wait how all these mysteries will close. Looking forward for the third one.
