I jumped on these when I heard that Sanderson was the heir to Robert Jordan, and all I can say is WOW! This is definitely a guy to be watched! With good well developed characters, a strong and intriguing plotline, and some pretty twisty twists and turns, the Mistborn trilogy is definitely worth more than just a read! It's a keeper! Will definitely be buying more of his books (and have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed his Wheel of Time books as well - almost better than Jordan if I dare say so...)

I'm giving this 5 stars, not because I think it is one of the best books I've read (although it is excellent), but because it is a very nicely presented box set and a bargain (I think it was around £12 when i bought it). The 3 books themselves are of a very high standard and if you have, like me learned about Brendan Sanderson through his continuation of the wheel of time series then you will not be disappointed with these books. The characters are easy to engage with and whilst Sanderson does go into a fair depth of detail, it never feels like too much and the story flows along at just the right pace. Many trilogies or longer series go through stages where you get a little tired of them and start wondering when something is actually going to happen, but this isnt the case here.
Whilst it is a typical fantasy good Vs evil trilogy, it's not in the same vein as wheel of time, lotr, chronicles of thomas covenant, etc - the story focuses less on the battle between good and evil and more on the characters rather than events that are out of their control and you are never really sure where the story is going to take you. If you like a good fantasy story then you will love this.
