Sanderson is not one to write a paragraph when he can write pages of dull dialogue or shy from belabouring a point. I have only persevered after reading a summary that sounded like a good story. Unfortunately, Sanderson is so hell-bent on providing swathes of unnecessary detail it gets in the way of the story itself. With good editing, this could have been a cracking good >400 pager.
