A well-thought and well-detailed world in which a handful of people gained superpowers, and then throw the nation into chaos by turning into criminals and dictators.
Brandon Sanderson populates his world with some stock sci-fi characters, but wisely anchors the book with an engaging story about a young man's quest for revenge. At the same time Sanderson illustrates (by example) the limitations of that guiding goal in a person's life, and the desire for something beyond revenge.
