5.0 out of 5 stars Better and better, 6 Nov 2008
By bookaholic - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Cover:
"Who is the Hero of Ages? To end the Final Empire and restore freedom, Vin killed the Lord Ruler. But as a result, the Deepness - the lethal form of the ubiquitous mists - is back, along with increasingly heavy ashfalls and ever more powerful earthquakes. Humanity appears to be doomed.

Having escaped death at the climax of The Well of Ascension only by becoming a Mistborn himself, emperor Elend Venture hopes to find clues left behind by the Lord Ruler that will allow him to save the world. Vin is consumed with guilt at having been tricked into releasing the mystic force known as Ruin from the Well. Ruin wants to end the world, and its near omniscience and ability to warp reality make stopping it seem impossible. Vin can't even discuss it with Elend lest Ruin learn their plans!"

Brandon Sanderson's books just get better and better. This is the best of the trilogy. The ending, while surprising, falls into place without jarring my sense of justice being done to the characters. Brandon has become one of my favorite writers. His plots are refreshing. Sometimes I feel as though I'm re-reading old books when a new writer comes along, but this is not the case with Brandon. He manages to bring new life into the world of fantasy, while at the same time exploring the age-old topics in the genre.

I am SO looking forward to his interpretation of Robert Jordan's last book. No longer worried!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good ending., 12 Jan 2009
By L. W. Gulbrandsen "Wild Norseman" (Oslo, Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having been a bit disappointed by the second book , I was pleasantly surprised by this final installment in the Mistborn series.
It keeps the fast pace and action from the first book, and manages to pull all threads together into an exciting and (to me) surprising finish.

The book also has an extensive summary of the first 2 books, characters and the magic system. Which makes it strange that book start with introducing the magic system again, making in my opinion the Wheel of time error of explaining things already understood by the reader. A minor problem here, but still strange in my eyes.

Overall a good read, and a good conclusion to the series.
I'm looking forward to Sanderson's future books, both the Wot ending and his own works.
