Story
It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs - once thought of almost as gods - were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

Publisher's Summary
The first book in a new, action-packed thrill ride of a series, from the number-one New York Times best-selling author of the Mistborn Trilogy and The Way of Kings.
Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his wills. Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father.
For years, like the Reckoners, David's been studying and planning - and he has something they need. Not an object but an experience. He's seen Steelheart bleed. And he wants revenge.

For younger readers
Top childish to belong in fantasy, feels more like it would belong in young adult fiction than in the fantasy genre. The concepts were interesting but the execution of it seemed far less adept than I had been led to believe Brandon Sanderson was capable of.

Great book, give it some time to build up
First of all, I like Sandersons style, so if you like his other books you will probably like this one as well. The first chapter is a bit weird and I wasn't sure if I would like the book but after it takes off it was incredible. I would deduct half a star for some logic holes but overall it was really enjoyable and most of the logic is sound, so who cares (right, I care, that's why I'm writing this).
Others wrote they did not like that there was only one narrator - I think he did a great job and having multiple ones would have deducted from the experience instead of adding to it, so thanks MacLeod Andrews!

A single voice actor doesn’t do the story justice
I’ve read the Steelheart book prior to listening to the audiobook and I think having one person do the reading diminishes the story’s impact considerably.
MacLeod doesn’t do a horrible job, in fact he does David and Abraham’s voices really well, but having a female voice actress to cover Tina and Megan would have been much better, especially with some of the more dramatic conversations between Megan and David.
If you’re tossing up the decision between listening to the book or just reading it yourself, I’d say read it yourself just to avoid the bad female impressions.

Great voice. Love the personality Andrews brings to the characters, especially the narrator.
Unique story, classic Sanderson, if a little flatter than his previous works (Looking at you, Mistborn series). At least Andrews' vocal stylings help bring a bit of life to the party.
Sanderson asks and answers the question "what if ALL the superheroes were supervillains?" in an action-packed dystopian steampunk sci-fi novel narrated in the first person by a quirky and amusing MC.

For teens only.
I have really like or loved everything Brandon Sanderson has written till now. I stayed away from this book for quite a while knowing it was for teens but haven seen quite a few reviews I thought were from adults so I gave it a try. Very disapointed intersting story idea the epics but boring characters not very exciting story and I could see what was coming a mile away. If I was 20 years younger I might have enjoyed the book. Can't stress this enough this is a teen book if you are a mature adult stay away.

Awesome book
That was one of the best books I've listened to. The narratorrwad the book beautifully and the voices of the characters throughout the book. And the story kept me on the edge of my chair as I listened.
Can't wait to listened to the rest of the book series.
I would recommend this book to everyone.

Great story with an amazing delivery
My first introduction to Sanderson and fantasy In general. The story had a great plot and an intriguing ending that made me want to continue the series. The delivery of the story was spectacular and feels like any different adaptation would do it injustice.
