"Shadows of self" by Brandon Sanderson is apparently a part of a long fantasy series set forward in the future from the opening stories in another series which I have not yet read. I first encountered the hero in a previous novel which resembled a Western with a Lawman from a big city out to work the Roughs far outside the valley in which the big city sits. I didn't think it was that bad but the new version is set in the city and now the Lawman is a member of the Constbulary and imagine if Superman was a cop? And the dude is flying around using his magical powers with vast Mist Coat with tassels streaming around him. This is comic book action. I was very unhappy with the whole thing. bliss -- b l i s s - S F 4 e v e r at D S L E x t r e m e dot com
