I really loved this - I was a little concerned about going straight into the second era of the Mistborn series, having loved the characters of the first era so deeply. I shouldn't have worried. This story is separate enough that I didn't feel like I was betraying the original characters by falling for these ones so fast, yet it still holds so many elements I loved about the original trilogy (including some wonderful easter eggs). 

Character-wise, Marasi is iconic and I love her, Wax and Wayne have such a hilarious dynamic, and even the side characters are interesting - I can't wait to delve deeper into this continuation of the Mistborn story.
