A solid fantasy book. This is not my genre, and it has its flaws, but it is as good as I have ever read and there is an interest from Sanderson to do something interesting with Vin, the female protagonist, exploring her relationship to her own femininity. He doesn't quite get there imo, but I appreciate the effort!
