This book is awesome. This is also the first Sanderson book i have read, and it fully deserved the five star rating.Looking forward to the next installment. 
 BS uses the regular elements of high fantasy (autocracy, worldbuilding, geology, magic systems etc) in an extremely innovative way. He has been bold enough to venture out from the usual framework of regular high fantasy and TWOK is at times dark and morbid. Interestingly his magic system aslso has room for various steampunk elements that just add to the flavor. The battles are bloody, and the ending is nailbiting. 
 Great read! My thanks to Chathura for sending me a copy!
