Brandon Sanderson / Re: Mistborn series (HoA) ending. Major *SPOILER* (duh)
« on: January 01, 2009, 05:20:07 AM »I don't know. I think that Brandon tapped into strong emotions without having to make people want to cry. I felt almost. . . . proud. I'm not going to lie. When I read a series I tend to make strong connections with characters and I mourn their passing. The thing about these characters is not that I wasn't connected to them and that I didn't want them to live. It was more that the sacrifices they made during the duration of the trilogy kind of described them. The final sacrifice in the name of everything they stood for was nothing more than valiant and it made me proud. I didn't want to cry because . . . . well because that was who they were. They were the saviors of a world. Their passing was very iconic and brilliant. For those characters to have the story end in any other way would have been a shortcoming on their behalf. They deserved to do everything they could to save their world and in the end they did.
wow this sums up it all. I totally agree^-^
