Songs of the Dead by Brandon SandersonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This one definitely doesn’t feel much like Sanderson, aside from the presence of a strongly defined magic system. Otherwise, it feels like he’s the executive producer at best, and this is truly Peter Orullian’s brainchild, which makes sense given how hella metal it is. Laden with references to rock and metal music alike, with an angelic type character who feels like a knockoff of Castiel from Supernatural - seriously, he’s called Cassius, and his arch af way of speaking contrasts sharply with the more down to earth protagonist Jack - I can see why the GR rating is so low for this one, but it still managed to keep my interest well enough to read in almost one sitting.
