Recently becoming a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson (little over a week ago?) I have read the Trilogy and just finished Alloy of Law and sooo I have stumbled upon this vast website of information.
I read the first couple pages of this thread so I don't know what was all discussed and would be gretful if someone responded to my post:P Anywho... my opinions
I thought The Alloy of Law was amazing!
The fight scenes I thought were awesome (specially the train scene) and didn't seem to require much imagination as those from the first 3 books.
I love Wax's dilemma, so much like his ancestor Breeze's... She's to young! hahah
High Imperial was hilarious, but I wouldn't have thought Spook (Lord Mistborn right?) would use it much, but then maybe Beldre encouraged him sorta like in Hero of Ages.
So I wonder if any metal that pierces works for communication with Harmony (Sazed of course?)and so every Pathian can communicate or the faceless immortals (Kandra?) give specific earring that have hermalurgic power to certain important people like Wax.
Which makes me wonder... if hermalurgy require metal to pierce through the heart to steal their power what would happen if it pierces through Miles while he was regenerating (would it take any power from him?)
Aluminium hats gave me a giggle
Would there be vast underground caverns underneath Elendel?
I have this vibe that Ranette is a lesbian
So it seems there are no fossil fuels on Scadrial so I suppose the world is going to be very electricity driven and perhaps very green. Something I'm sure Harmony would want.
I wonder if time is even relevant to Harmony since he apparently knows of electricity and planes, but then again the Lord Ruler essentially forced The Final Empire back into the Dark Ages from whatever technology they had (Gunpowder and??)
Apparently Hermalurgy is driven to the dark again?
I also loved all the Great house names. I wonder is Cett and Ladrian are closely knit.
Man my thoughts are so jumbled together...Wish I found this site sooner. D:
Edit in some more thoughts:
Pulser have an amazing ability! Every medical unit needs one great for a spy to infiltrate enemies and set up a bubble for an ambush. Like AHHH the possibilies for this ability are endless and most of all extremely helpful
