From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, the Mistborn series is a heist story of political intrigue and magical, martial-arts action.

Three hundred years after the events of the Mistborn trilogy, Kelsier and Vin have passed into the realm of history and myth, and the world of Scadrial is on the verge of modernity. In the frontier lands known as the Roughs, the old magics are a crucial tool for those who establish order and justice.

One such is Waxillium Ladrian, a rare Twinborn, who can Push on metals with his Allomancy and use Feruchemy to become lighter or heavier at will. After twenty years in the Roughs, tragedy has driven Wax back to the metropolis of Elendel. Now he must reluctantly put away his guns and assume the duties of the head of a noble house. But when a gang of Allomancers turn to train robbery and kidnapping, Wax will soon learn that the mansions and elegant tree-lined streets of the city can be more dangerous than the dusty plains of the Roughs.

    If you liked the first Mistborn trilogy you will love this first iteration into Wax and Wayne Mistborn saga. Characters from the previous trilogy are handled excellently, the setting is exceedingly alluring and the pacing is wonderful. Fantastic and easy read.

  • Better than expected

    A new twist on the mistborn theme. I wasn’t expecting much but found the read surprisingly enjoyable.

  • Waited too long

    I loved the Mistborn Series. So unique and inventive. For some reason I turned away for this follow up series and deeply regret it now. I finished this book before I even realized it and am super excited to start the next in the series. Thank you Brandon. Your books are wonderful.

  • Great book

    I really enjoyed this book and have always loved this sort of setting. I felt like the characters were more fleshed out and there was a little less “magic” to sort through and follow.

  • Gets worse from here.

    I'm a huge mistborn fan, and the first three books are incredible! But, you can tell this book isn't as good. It's short, the characters are bland and lack depth, and the book is a bit short. If you like the first three I'd say maybe get it, but don't set you expectations high.

  • Brilliant and highly creative.

    I can't recall another author who was take a system of "magic", and propelled to to a future time with different characters into a somewhat different genre. This would be classified as a Western fantasy science fiction mystery, I think. Creative as Sanderson is there are some of the same tired PG tropes that he sticks to, with the proper but counterculture protagonist, arranged marriages, unconsummated relationships with "pure" young women who would never dream of violating their chaste lifestyle. There's a certain way that he shies away from "dishonorable" thinking that makes the characters slightly less then lifelike, but it's also what is too often seen in the fantasy genre. That being said, this is an amazing book with creative and compelling plot lines, and well worth reading.

  • Strung along to make more money

    I've been avid reader of Brandon Sanderson's books. Clearly his greed is showing. This book is a cliffhanger.

    Had you not asked Brandon Sanderson to finish your series, I would have most likely passed over this series. I am securely hooked on it now and anxiously await more installments
