Freeing the land of a dictator is not enough. The mists are staying longer and they’re killing people, and the Lord Ruler might have been in the right all along.

 

Character development, increased jeopardy, a treasure hunt. Great elements to round off this stage of the Mistborn story. I know there are another four books set in this world, but from what I can see there’s a big time jump until book four, and I don’t think I’m quite ready to open myself up to new characters, because Vin, El, TenSoon and Sazed will stay with me for some time to come.
