Historia
Kinch Na Shannack owes the Takers Guild a small fortune for his education as a thief, which includes (but is not limited to) lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, plus a few small magics. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path. But today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark.

Leaves you wanting more!

I could listen to Christopher narrate story after story about the escapades of Kinch. Fantastic story that packs an epic's tale into a punchy novel. He gives you glimpses into the wider world and I want to explore it more!

Historia
Some say that to change the world you must first burn it down. Now that belief will be tested in the crucible of revolution: The Breakers and Burners have seized the levers of power, the smoke of riots has replaced the smog of industry, and all must submit to the wisdom of crowds. With nothing left to lose, Citizen Brock is determined to become a new hero for the new age, while Citizeness Savine must turn her talents from profit to survival before she can claw her way to redemption.

A Master of the Grey
Revisado: 04-30-21
Abercrombie is a master at weaving these characters and themes together, you find yourself rooting for characters for different reasons throughout the book and by the end you're a mess of different feelings about it. Just like the real world, there's no clear answer to everything, and everyone is just struggling through it. I think that's why I enjoy these books and these characters so much, because Abercrombie really does make them all relatable.

Seriously, between Sanderson, Kramer, and Reading this entire universe comes alive. Lift is a delight, and it's awesome to see her come into her own (albeit kicking and screaming)

I can't get enough
Revisado: 04-05-17
The second narrator grew on me since the first book! Much needed depth was added and collaboration between the two readers it seemed. The story and book itself of course was amazing to say the least. Brandon Sanderson is a master at weaving story, and his insight on people through his characters is uncanny. The action picked up in a big way and I can't get enough.

Historia
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Another Sanderson Classic
Revisado: 03-19-17
Some conflicting tones between the narrators and the fact that they didn't pronounce names the same threw me off. Michael Kramer again nailing his performance. His voice is synonymous with Sanderson's novels in my mind.
Overall a slow buildup with a nice payoff, can't wait to see what the next books hold.

Historia
The conclusion of the Mistborn trilogy fulfills all the promise of the first two books. Revelations abound, connections rooted in early chapters of the series click into place, and surprises, as satisfying as they are stunning, blossom like fireworks to dazzle and delight. It all leads up to a finale unmatched for originality and audacity that will leave listeners shaking their heads in wonder, as if awaking from an amazing dream.

Satisfying to the end
Revisado: 11-26-16
Sanderson ties up this trilogy expertly in this novel. It had me smiling, crying, shouting in amazement in how things were panning out for our characters. The action scenes are intense and visceral and the conversations are engaging. Michael Kramer really puts on a performance and you can hear the emotion dripping in his voice, you get chills while listening. 10/10 would recommend.

Historia
For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

Revisado: 09-16-16
I was hesitant at first, I was intrigued by the premise of the book but didn't like the narrator during the sample reading. However after some time I realized how well his voice works for a lot of the characters, even Vin. This book is very cinematic!

Not the best of the books translated so far, however Peter Kenny kills it again. I'm hungry for more.
