From the bestselling author of the Mistborn series and Words of Radiance comes Calamity, the final book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Reckoners series: Steelheart, Firefight, and Calamity.
    When Calamity lit up the sky, the Epics were born. David’s fate has been tied to their villainy ever since that historic night. Steelheart killed his father. Firefight stole his heart. And now Regalia has turned his closest ally into a dangerous enemy.
    David knew Prof’s secret, and kept it even when Prof struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. Once the Reckoners’ leader, Prof has now embraced his Epic destiny. He’s disappeared into those murky shadows of menace Epics are infamous for the world over, and everyone knows there’s no turning back. . . .
    But everyone is wrong. Redemption is possible for Epics—Megan proved it. They’re not lost. Not completely. And David is just about crazy enough to face down the most powerful High Epic of all to get his friend back. Or die trying.

    I was on the edge of my seat for this finale to the series. Every new revelation had me turning the next page just to see how it all fit together, and the author did an amazing job of trying all the loose threads together. More importantly, it was an ending that left me with just the right amount of questions. You want more, but you’re not confused left confused or unsatisfied. That always seems like a really hard balance to pull off. I wish there was more to this series, but I’m glad it had the ending it did. Reckoners will definitely last as one of my favorite series!
  • Great Finale!!!

    I wouldn't say this book is for adults at all means, but for it's target audience young adult, it was great! It wrapped up this series quite nicely and had me on the edge of my seat until the last page. David is a very relatable character and is still just as funny and heroic in this book as the others. I would definitely recommend this book to those who loved the first two!

The metaphors and similes left me laugh so hard I woke my wife up more than a couple times reading next to her at night. If you are looking for a fun story that's everything you wished Heroes lived up to, this is the story for you. Way to go #brandonsanderson.

    I absolutely adore this series. Brandon, you never fail to bring a fantastic, engaging, intriguing and loving story. Calamity is a perfect conclusion to the Reckoners series and I am sad to see it come to a close, but happy to see the end. I have become so invested in this book that I have spent many a night getting only a few hours of sleep because I simply couldn't put it down. I can't wait for the next book from you and I thank you for sharing your beautiful art with me and everyone else. -Logan

    I finished the book a few hours ago. Calamity was just such a thrilling book. I had high expectations and Sanderson did not let me down. I loved it. It had such fulfilling conclusion but it still left me wanting more. I've read a lot of books but none have exited and pleases me more than this one. Please make another book in the Reckoners series!! Sanderson if your reading this, many thanks to you!
