![]() ![]() That is literally the only thing I can think of. So, my reasoning for disappointment has a fairly simple answer: Sanderson backed out. I haven’t read all his books, no, but I have read the Mistborn series and it owns a piece of my soul, just like this one does-But in totally different ways. This, to me, felt like a watered down version of what Sanderson can do. It lacked passion, direction, and, most of all, reason. “What did I tell you about that word, David?” “Well,” Mizzy said, “if only we had access to someone with a freakishly large repository of knowledge about Epics, and who can’t help but tell us about them. I’m sorry, but what was this supposed to be? It was good still, I mean, I wouldn’t have rated a four if it didn’t make me happy-but a four in an epic fantasy series by Sanderson? That might as well be a two. The story I’ve come to obsess and fangirl over? Gone. David himself? Please, I will NEVER forget my boy. Honestly-the reason my heart still beat out of my chest for the entirety of the novel. My Megan is a sunrise, always changing, but beautiful the entire time.”ĭavid and Megan? They were great. Don’t get me started on the fangirling! But, as I said above, all this stuff I loved, cherished, lived for and looked forward to? It was just…it was virtually nonexistent. The way she continually protected David.I can’t even. That being said, Megan became a not-so-villain I adored. Sanderson is someone that never ceases to amaze me with his writing, his creativity and originality, and utter lack of disregard for those of us who can’t stand to lose our favorite characters. That plot twist in book one was beyond words amazing, making me drop my jaw and gasp into the dark bedroom I was reading in. “No, and…wait, when did I call you a hippo?” “You,” I said, tipping her chin up to look her in the eye, “are a sunrise.” And his resolute belief that Epics can’t be good was something that shaped him into the adorkable boy we met today-until he met Megan. He’s nerdy, sweet, kind, and loyal in ways that are hard to find in YA fantasy (I mean, he’s the first adorable nerd I’ve found). A secretly very, very deadly squirrel.Īnd his primal need to be a part of something that shaped his soul from the moment Steelheart stole his childhood. ![]() To a drone I’d have a tiny heat signature, like a squirrel or something. ![]() I thrived on his horrible metaphors/similes David was a character that made me laugh, smile, and root for every little thing he did. And the one with the mailbox, but seriously, who remembered that anymore?īook one and book two were shocking to me in a way that captured me from the bottom of my heart. Because as much as I’ve enjoyed this series, this finale fell completely short….in more ways than one.Įveryone took a turn driving except me. Twenty-one pilots song PERFECT for this series! □Īnd I’m not going to tarnish something I’ve always enjoyed with lots of complaints and rambling about where things went wrong. I have loved every single minute of this series from beginning to end… I think this is one of those reviews where I’m going to make it quick: This series, these characters, this author are epic. And David is just about crazy enough to face down the most powerful High Epic of all to get his friend back. Redemption is possible for Epics-Megan proved it. He’s disappeared into those murky shadows of menace Epics are infamous for the world over, and everyone knows there’s no turning back.īut everyone is wrong. Once the Reckoners’ leader, Prof has now embraced his Epic destiny. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. And now Regalia has turned his closest ally into a dangerous enemy.ĭavid knew Prof’s secret, and kept it even when Prof struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. ![]() David’s fate has been tied to their villainy ever since that historic night.
