    I read the Mistborn books, and wasn’t terribly impressed. Anyone that repeatedly and unrepentantly uses the phrase “decked him in the face” is not a good writer. :)

      Mistborn were his first books, the first trilogy is definitely a bit rough around the edges.

        And how! That said, they weren’t entirely without entertainment value, and I did finish all of them, but I didn’t feel the need to read any more of his stuff, either.
