Well this was fun! I throughly enjoyed this next phase of Mistborn. The characters are lovable, the world has changed so much, and the mystery is full throttle. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

I’m sure there are people that would absolutely love this book. I’m just not particularly fond of stories set in industrial revolution time periods, and I really don’t enjoy books where the protagonist is a cop. TRIGGER WARNING:

while not depicted, the main motivation for Wax to save the women that have been abducted is that he finds out they are likely being sex trafficked. He does not find them in this book and it is implied they will be forcibly bred to produce Allomancers.

Wayne is iconic - but the epilogue alone is worth 5 stars.

 BrandoSando wanted to treat readers of the original trilogy with a fast-paced sequel, set centuries later, with a Victorian aesthetic AND gunslingers. Somehow it works!

Always a big fan of what this man can do and I'm especially keen to see how he develops this fantasy society with modern technology and the different religions!
