    So Brandon Sanderson is now not only writing brilliant fiction books, but he's writing brilliant sci-fi as well. Of course it's just a short story, so it doesn't go into as much glorious detail as it could in a full-sized book, but it's also pretty cheap, so I definitely recommend.
  • Engaging, well-written SF

    Enjoyable, quick read...I'm pretty picky about the quality of writing in my sci-fi, and Sanderson, as usual, remains both unpretentious and engaging, while also intelligent and creative. I didn't love Mistborn, unlike many others, but I adored Way of Kings, and this little story felt a bit more like that new series in style and substance (though about 700 pages shorter, haha!). Highly recommended.
  • Well done!

    Im a massive Brandon sanderson fan. Read almost all of his books. This isnt his best work but its pretty good. Its nice to see him work with sci fi and try something diferent and he obviously knows what to do. Its a good filler while waiting for his next books.

    Brandon Sanderson has this amazing ability: he can bring characters to life in a way that most authors can't. When I first heard that he was taking over to complete the Wheel of Time, I have to admit that I was skeptical. Robert Jordan left some very big shoes to fill. But after experiencing the way that Sanderson handled my favorite series, I was an instant fan. I have since purchased, read, re-read, and then re-re-read all of his works. Firstborn is a masterpiece. A short, simple story that showcases all of the amazing talent that Sanderson possesses. I would love to see more SciFi from this author, but even if he wrote a pulp romance, I would probably still read it. 5 stars is not enough!!
  • Good afternoon read.

    A nice little read. A short book, but it had interesting twists and turned. It had a nice set of teaching points. There was an interesting subtext. There were some nice unexpected turns, all in 69 pages. Nice.
  • Great short story!

    I've read every book printed in paperback by Sanderson. By far!!!!, my all time favorite author. Can't wait for his next series, and the final books of "the wheel of time" to hit paperback!
