About this ebook

Now with over 10 million copies sold, The Mistborn Series has the thrills of a heist story, the twistiness of political intrigue, and the epic scale of a landmark fantasy saga.

Once, a hero arose to save the world. He failed.

Ever since, the world has been a wasteland of ash and mist controlled by the immortal emperor known as the Lord Ruler.

But hope survives. A new uprising is forming, one built around the ultimate caper, the cunning of a brilliant criminal mastermind, and the determination of an unlikely heroine: a street urchin who must learn to master the power of a Mistborn.

WOW! This man knows how to architect a story. Not only that, but you can feel like not much is happening but feel totally immersed and not want to put it down. Then When big reveals happen you realize that there have been tiny clues dropping here & there the whole you just missed. This book has an interesting magic system with a fresh view on revolution. I loved how all of the characters were indistinguishable & believable. I absolutely loved it!

Mistborn: The Final Empire was an absolute blast! Sanderson’s world-building is incredible, creating a gritty and fascinating setting that feels both familiar and entirely new. The magic system is complex but easy to grasp, and the characters are incredibly well-developed. Kelsier and Vin are such compelling protagonists, and their journey is both thrilling and inspiring. I can’t wait to dive into the next book in the series
