I am writing this way too late for me to get enough sleep for work but OH MY GOODNESS this book still has me hooked and it is bloody finished! Everything I did around this book felt infused by the knowledge that I was just about to pick it up again - so what do I do now? 
 The ending was absolutely perfect. The world building, the character arcs, the battles, and the studies all led up to the final moments so perfectly, but it didn't feel like a ridiculous deus ex machina move at all. After suffering through so many awful last books in series, it was truly inspiring to see it so well executed. 
 Sazed's character arc through all three books has been one of my favourites, and this book did not disappoint. His crisis of faith really added an extra layer to this novel, and it was the something extra I needed. Fight sequences, wars and magic aside, I feel the true shining star in this book/series was its ability to link in some truly universal philosophical themes into this "end of the world" storyline. We are not simply learning about this amazing world, but examining the strength of religion, methods of leadership, types of government, the nature of madness, the point of love and the importance of trust. Without these elements, this series would not have been the same. 
 The plotline of this novel, in particular, plays to the above philosophical strengths of the series established in earlier books, and I feel that it matures alongside the world building aspects wonderfully. As a result, it felt very well rounded and well paced. He also stuck to the tiny little bits of humour dropped which I enjoyed immensely and were very well placed to lighten the mood. The little witty comments kept that theme up from Kelsier's days when smiling was a rebellion in itself, which again feeds into how whole this series felt. 
 Basically: fabulous, fabulous, and more fabulous. I can't wait to get my hands on yet more of Sanderson's books (four down, a million to go).
