Brandon, first of all, I love your work.  I like many came to know your stuff due to the WOT announcement.  I read both Mistborn books and was hooked.  I wanted to try your polished work first before checking out Warbreaker.  Since, I read the latest draft, I thought it was spectacular.  The only bit of advise I have is an extremely small thing.  It involves the scene with Lightsong in the prison when his brother finally snaps.  I love having him become a scribe, but I think the part where he always gets his brother into trouble and ending up in jail is a little over the top and seemed out of place.  I mean how could a scribe really end up in jail so often?  I might have missed something since I was reading so quickly to try and see how it ends, but that is my two cents.  I know it is a small thing, but that was really the only part of the book that seemed out of place at all.
