This book is the continuation of David Charleston's account of life on earth with the Epics. Negative: Too much repetition of first novel during the first 1/2 of this book. Granted, some repetition is necessary for clarity in case the…

Good as ever.
Not too bad; it was a little slower than Steelheart and not as much action (it focused more on the setting, in my opinion. Not saying that it didn't have action; it had plenty of that). It had some plot twists, though nowhere…

Sanderson starts up this sequel just as fast-paced as Steelheart. I really enjoyed how this book introduces more epics and delves into some of the different motives of each of the new powers. Regalia is like an ancient water goddess and…

Fantastic world-building! I loved thinking about how this world works and the politics of Epics. The main character, David, is a bit flawed and tad annoying, but Sanderson still gets us to root for him. We had some new characters, and…

I really enjoy Brandon's style of writing. It is fast paced, and has good description and dialogue. I am not a fan of books with heavy description which a lot of fantasy novels can suffer from but Brandon doesn't do that.
Definitely…
This is the sequel to the bestseller Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson. This book is about the Reckoners going to Babylon Restored (New York) to stop Megan, Regina, and Obliteration, 3 powerful epics. I read the book and finished yesterday.…

This book was spectacular! I thought 'Steelheart' was awesome but this book blow me away. The characters kept me hooked the whole time and the plot twists kept me on the edge of my set and the…

If I could give more than five stars, I would. Firefight outshines Steelheart in every way, expanding on the "magic" system and world. Characters introduced in the first book are given new dimensions, and David's metaphors are in top form.

This was a great book. I think I liked it even more than the first book to this series. I just wished I didn't have to wait so long till the next book in the series comes out!
Another great book by Brandon Sanderson! This book reveals a lot more about Epics, the "magic" system, and how things here are related to Brandon's Cosmos (I'm pretty sure this trilogy is related, but correct me if I remembered wrong…

FAVOURITE BOOK IN EXISTENCE!
You must read this. MUST MUST MUST! A great sequel to Steelheart. Brandon Sanderson paints a story with a weak villian who is actually the strongest of his villians yet. Regalia is incredibly well developed,…
The Reckoners Trilogy has never been better. The author's characters are clearly, colorfully depicted, their relationships likewise stenciled, the effect being masterful drama and rather likely to elicit one or two squees and tears, …
