Really great stories in this book. This is a book of short stories or novellas. This book, in a sense, ties all his different series together. Sanderson has written many different series, with different magic systems on different worlds. This book has stories that take place in the different worlds of his different series. It says in the forward that the stories were meant to stand on their own without needing to read the other series. However, I found myself thinking during many of the stories how glad I was that I had read the series before this story because I felt I got so much more out of the story, There were stories that took place in worlds in series I have not read and I still enjoyed those stories. Sanderson is an amazing writer, particularly in the way he is able to create characters, cultures, and magic systems and then explain them in ways that are entertaining, clear, and work. No fighting the movie when reading a Sanderson book for me.
