Publisher's Summary

The Mistborn trilogy has become a firm favourite with fantasy fans the world over. The imagination that Sanderson brought to the series, his skill at marshalling epic storylines and dramatic action and his ability to create vivid characters made him a natural choice to complete Robert Jordan's epic Wheel of Time sequence. 

But with Mistborn, Sanderson has shown his bountiful talents in his own fiction. Now he returns to the series that made his name with a new story, building on the incredible success of The Alloy of Law. The new Mistborn books move the series into a richly imagined 19th-century analogue world with elements of the Wild West mixed with magic and science. It's a wonderful concoction from a master storyteller. 

Sanderson has the knack of giving epic fantasy listeners exactly what they want. This ability has thrown him to the forefront of the genre, and this novel will take him to the next level.

Wax and Wayne have done it again!

This book left me on the edge of my seat. It was humorous and intense. Once again Wax and Wayne's relationship left me needing more I cant wait for the next edition to this series.

Another great addition to the Wax and Wayne series

I'm sure most people including myself could see one of the twists coming before even starting this book but it was still enjoying non the less.

Truly great story

This book brought me back to loving the Era 2. To say Michael Kramer’s performance is outstanding would not be sufficient. Loved it!

Hilarious Fantasy Road Trip

Such a fun book. Brandon Sanderson is getting funnier. His characters interactions are endlessly entertaining. His world building is second to none. And he just keeps on writing new novels for us to enjoy.

Expect the usual originality and awesomeness

Sanderson just keeps killing it. There was never a dull moment in any of these past 3 Mistborn novels in this new era.
