It was awesome to watch him grow in this. Because of his aspects, his personality is contained in all of them, so without them, he's sort of empty. Stephen himself felt rather flat at the beginning, but as I read further, I realized that was an intentional decision. Stephen's cases were intriguing to follow, and his aspects were really fun characters to get to know and get invested in.
He uses their help to solve mysteries as a way to give himself a purpose. It tells the story of Stephen Leeds, who creates hallucinatory "aspects" with certain specialties to help him compartmentalize his knowledge to learn things and master abilities. Brandon Sanderson is such a creative author, and here's yet another book of his that doesn't fail to impress. I devoured this book (a set of three novellas) in three days and really enjoyed it.
