Summary

Return to New York Times best seller Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn world of Scadrial as its second era, which began with The Alloy of Law, comes to its earth-shattering conclusion in The Lost Metal.

For years, frontier lawman turned big-city senator Waxillium Ladrian has hunted the shadowy organisation the Set - with his late uncle and his sister among their leaders - since they started kidnapping people with the power of Allomancy in their bloodlines. When Detective Marasi Colms and her partner Wayne find stockpiled weapons bound for the Outer City of Bilming, this opens a new lead. Conflict between Elendel and the Outer Cities only favours the Set, and their tendrils now reach to the Elendel Senate - whose corruption Wax and Steris have sought to expose - and Bilming is even more entangled.

After Wax discovers a new type of explosive that can unleash unprecedented destruction and realises that the Set must already have it, an immortal kandra serving Scadrial's god reveals that Harmony's power is blocked in Bilming. That means the city has fallen under the influence of another god: Trell, worshipped by the Set. And Trell isn't the only factor at play from the larger Cosmere - Marasi is recruited by offworlders with strange abilities who claim their goal is to protect Scadrial...at any cost.

Harmony's vision of future possibilities comes to an abrupt halt tomorrow night, with only blackness after that. It's a race against time, and Wax must choose whether to set aside his rocky relationship with God and once again become the Sword that Harmony has groomed him to be. If no one steps forward to be the hero Scadrial needs, the planet and its millions of people will come to a sudden and calamitous ruin.

Stunning

A stunning end to a fantastic age for Scadriel, and a fitting capstone to Wax and Wayne's story. Once again, Sanderson's creativity has me chomping at the bit for more secrets, more information, and more of his amazing magic systems.

A pleasure to be back in this world

Not as good as it’s predecessors but still one of the best books of this genre

The need to tie up this era’s loose ends and set the scene for the next era make some sections a little clunky but Sanderson is a master story teller who sets the reader up to be eager for the next instalment.

To have the ability to make something like this is amazing

I heard this 7 books in one month, if you like fantasy fiction this is for you. I do hope there comes a follow up as the ending is kinda open and it is there for quite possible.

Good enough

Found a little drawn out. Also draws on a lot of other books in the Cosmere that I hadn't read yet, so you might be better checking a suggested reading order. Overall a good story though and I really enjoyed it.
