Product Description
Evil has been defeated. The war has just begun.
They did the impossible, deposing the godlike being whose brutal rule had lasted a thousand years. Now Vin, the street urchin who has grown into the most powerful Mistborn in the land, and Elend Venture, the idealistic young nobleman who likes her, must erect a healthy new society in the ashes of an empire.
They have barely begun when three separate armies attack. As the siege tightens, an very ancient legend seems to offer a glimmer of hope. But even if it really exists, no one knows where to find the Well of Ascension or what manner of power it bestows.
It may just be that killing the Lord Ruler was the simple part. Extant the aftermath of his fall is going to be the real challenge.

I have not bought or read this book, but $9.99 for a Kindle version? The paperback sells new at Amazon for $7.99! When I first saw this book for sale, it was like $6 and change. Maybe like $6.79 or something. Now a jump to $9.99, even more than the retail fee of a paperback version of this book? No thank you!

I’m not sure I read the same book as what all these glowing reviewers are discussing. It’s a small like the Emperor’s New Clothes. I establish this book less exciting than the first one in the series which was a yawner to start with. Cardboard characters and sterotypical situations. There was nothing new, it was all a melange of additional fantasy novels. As a name who loved the first three volumes of Jordan but grew increasingly bored with the constant sequels that added nothing to the storyline, I guess Sanderson is a worthy pick to end off The Veer of Time.
Joe Abercrombie makes this guy look like a piker.

I just received the hardcover version of WOA and am very irritated at TOR books. They rumor has it that saved some money by using the smallest possible font size they could get away with – building the book 500ish pages long rather then 700ish? They also rumor has it that saved on ink. The text is a medium to light brown in color with poor contrast offwhitish paper. I do use reading glasses on some books and on some I do not. Even with reading glasses, it was a chore to read this book, and required me to get the strongest possible reading light to do so.
For persons of you who have never considered this sort of thing, at random , in your home library, pick up several books, open them to any page and read a line. then compare the books. It will emphasize what I’m adage and point out again, the publisher’s who are ‘cheating’ us.

As can be expected the second book is to some extent more of the same but with additional terrible guys.
There are some expected twists in the plot, but on the whole it’s a nice book – maybe since the charm and clearness of the thought is gone since it’s the second book – it drops a mark for me…

Ok, so Vin, dominated by feelings of uselessness because she can’t protect the people she cares about, chose to go in and butcher an enemy king and most of his guards. She kills a few hundred of the guards, but leaves the king alive due to a sudden stab of remorse. The king in turn leaves the city, which in turn destroys the careful balance of power that had been necessary to keep that city from being conquered by a second enemy king.
And Elend’s response to this?
“Well, I’m sure she had a perfectly excellent reason, because I trust her absolutely and unquestioningly.”
And that’s pretty much all you need to know about the Well of Ascension.
Well, that, and Sanderson seems to have a fondness for juvenile “excellent boy/terrible boy” quandries that really aren’t quandries at all.
Oh, and the fact that, when you learn that there’s a spy in your highest councils, you shouldn’t bother thinking or doing anything about it for over 200 pages. That way, it’s a shock when his identity is learned.
Dreadful book. Far worse than Hero of Ages…at least that one didn’t read like a terrible teen like tale.
