Read Legion, the first novella, but wasn't really into it. Thrillers generally aren't my thing.

A very interesting concept, following in the vein of other Sanderson books. It is a very quick and easy read, softer and less detailed than Sanderson's other works, not what I expected but a very enjoyable story.

sherwoodreads's review against another edition

I read an excerpt from what I gather is a fix up, or a compendium of three novellas. I have not quite connected with Sanderson's fantasy, though there is a lot I like, but this I really enjoyed.

Briefly, Stephen Leeds has multiple personas, and the banter between them is what makes the story so much fun. Watching the mystery unfold while Leeds and other people in real life blip in and out of consensus reality with the personas (aspects, Leeds calls them, insisting he does not have multiple personality disorder) is what made the story so much fun.

This was really good. The first story was probably my favorite, and I would rate it 5 stars. The other two were 4 star reads for me. I liked it a lot, though, and it was really different.
