Description
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.

Reviews
Great series starter
5By Whim1954If you enjoy high fantasy you will love this book. So much going on it’s hard to sort but carry on, it’s worth it.Mistborn
5By TeddyderhamAmazingGreat story as I have come to expect from Brandon
5By phoenix0331Kept each page turning never wanted to put it downGreat
5By 4Adventur3This book is so well written. Quirky, fantasy. I was wrapped in the whole time, borders on a 5 for me. Rarely do I give 5s, only when the pull emotions from me I didn’t expect.Simmmmerrr
5By Joe.Muck13Slow start, banger ending. I have a feeling book 2 is going to be really, really good. Solid twists and great character development. The tiktokers were right.Truly incredible
5By 2575884//Words cannot describe this novel. Genuinely stunning twists to the very end. Read it, you will not be disappointed.Mistborn
5By Vivi9900I love the characters, the setting and the adventure. 5/5 for me!Should be young adult
2By LonemeadragoniwannaseespaceGood idea, very poorly written. These books should be classified as young adult. I will say, the magic is really fun to read about — it’s the type of book you wish the author to revisit after they’ve honed their craft. You will read the same sentence about a thousand times. A lot of arched eyebrows (seems to be the only thing people can do to react to anything). A lot of inane conversations and internal dialogue that add nothing to the story. A lot of sieges that really don’t have a large impact on the actual problem facing the characters. Etc, etc. Pushed through the first bc the ratings were so good, I assumed it would get better. It got worse. Pushed through the second. Got halfway through the third (by far the worst) and gave up.Wow
5By VballdawhGoodOk Not great
3By Callanish7Definitely YA. It could have been compacted and half of the dialogue cut out. Really great idea but dragged out and totally predictable. Not gonna waste more time on the rest of the series as it’s a lot to wade thru
