About this ebook

THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE


****

The Dark Lord is dead, and now a new world can be built.

The impossible has happened. The Lord Ruler is dead has been vanquished. But so too is Kelsier the man who masterminded the triumph. The awesome task of rebuilding the world has been left to his protege Vin; a one-time street urchin, now the most powerful Mistborn in the land.

Worryingly for her Vin has become the focus of a new religion, a development that leaves her intensely uneasy. More worryingly still the mists have become unpredictable since the Lord Ruler died and a strage vaprous entity is stalking Vin.

As the siege of Luthadel intensifies the ancient legend of the Well of Ascension offers the only glimmer of hope. But no-one knows where it is or what it can do...

Ratings and reviews

It was alright, not as good as a lot of his other books. But I'm reading the series so this one must be read if your doing that!

Great continuation, very tense, I like the idea behind this book of "well, now that we completed our revolution, we have a lot to do now" and see that uncomfortable part that we don't often see after these kind of stories, that dethroning is not all that has to be done, there's still a lot of things that we still need to figure out and more new challenges.

This is srsly a great read! Loved it, loved the magic and the action, great charcters. I hope it gets made into a movie. If u liked hunger games or harry potter u wud love this!
