The Final Empire update: 120 pages in, and although I am not quite ready to "drink the Kool-aide" like our fearless leader Dave, I am enjoying the book. We did get a bit of an infodump with the introduction of Vin to the thieves gang. It was well placed and much needed by that point. I now also know what the basic premise of this book is going to be, you know the overthrow of the Lord Ruler. I already have suspicions regarding Vin. I'm guessing her father was the Lord Ruler, not because of anything I have read so far, but just how these stories tend to flow. I could be totally wrong, and I know no one is going to tell me now, but it ill be interesting to see if I am right.

I am also currently reading "The Aeronaut's Windlass" by Jim Butcher, another author known for his world building. Since these are both the first books in their respective series, it will be interesting to see how they compare. I know that Mr. Butcher's series "Codex Alera" would be a better comparison, but I read them back in 2013 and I'm not up to reading that series again so soon!
