Firstborn · The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England · I Hate Dragons · Heuristic Algorithm and Reasoning Response Engine · The Rithmatist During his journey, Kelsier meets Khriss from Taldain, and Nazh from Threnody. The pair enlighten Kelsier a little bit on how the events on Scadrial affect the cosmere but remain quite vague as to why they are there, or about events in the cosmere that are unrelated to the current conflict. Before parting, Nazh gives Kelsier his knife and wishes him well in his quest to save his planet. Along the way, Kelsier discovers many odd things about not being "alive" anymore. He finds that his Allomancy is useless and that he can create fire out of a log long since burned out simply by willing it to ignite. This entertaining read will especially please those who always wanted to know what happened after the good guys won. Publishers Weekly

Mistborn: Secret History - Wikipedia

Vin and Elend's arrival at the Well gives Kelsier hope that he will be able to get through to her, but as a cognitive aspect with no connection to the Physical Realm, he can't, so Kelsier takes Leras's knife and stabs Elend as the mist spirit to motivate Vin to use the power to save Elend. Despite this, Vin releases the power and thus releases Ruin and Kelsier from the Well. When he asks Preservation to help him stop Ruin, Preservation tells him to head across the ocean for help. Although he doesn't know this at the time, Kelsier has been sent to the southern side of Scadrial, where the people have advanced without much interference from either Shard. Throughout the novel Sanderson does a good job of incorporating interesting aspects of the mist-magic into the otherwise realistic scenario, and of juggling the small-scale and large-scale scenes that must comprise an undertaking of this scope and magnitude. . . . most [readers] will be mesmerized by Sanderson’s balancing act. Realms of Fantasy I’m Brandon Sanderson, and I write stories of the fantastic: fantasy, science fiction, and thrillers. If the person intends to only read Mistborn, and never read the rest of the Cosmere; then you still lose the impact that the Survivor survived death. You still lose the impact that Wax and gang's assumption that the Sovereign was Rashek was so far off-base.

They head to Dulsing via horse and carriage. Before they get there, they discover a large, unfinished building near a village. Wayne manages to penetrate the defenses using another disguise, and the others join him. Inside they find some rooms and a large ship that has been slightly damaged. Wax and Wayne split off to find Telsin; Marasi and MeLaan try to find the spike. As he is dying, Leras is often unfocused and has difficulties thinking and remembering, or even participating in an ongoing conversation. His abilities in this regard increase somewhat when he starts regularly interacting with Kelsier, and by his death, he is able to communicate coherently, though it's uncertain if his memories ever fully returned to him before his passing.

Arcanum Unbounded · Elantris · The Sunlit Man · Tress of the Emerald Sea · Warbreaker · White Sand · Yumi and the Nightmare Painter Mistborn: Secret History definitely has spoilers for Era 2 and the author recommends waiting until after Bands of Mourning to read it. Another factor is how much (if any) other Cosmere books/series has the individual read? If Mistborn is their first (or nearly first) work by Sanderson or in the Cosmere, then the ton of Cosmere references and information (Shadesmar, Ire, Connection, etc.) will not make much sense and will have far less impact than it should.You're not only the first to punch me, you’re also the first to try to recruit me. You are a distinctively strange man. Wayne hunts down Telsin and shoots her multiple times to avenge his friend's death, retrieving both MeLaan's and ReLuur's spikes. He restores MeLaan and lets Telsin escape.

Mistborn: Secret History by Brandon Sanderson | Waterstones

He will be writing it in a similar manner to the first trilogy, writing all three books before publishing so that he could properly foreshadow and edit past books. [13] [14] He is greatly looking forward to writing book ten. [15] These will be returning to the length of the Mistborn Era One books. [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] It is planned for these books to include a global map of Scadrial. [21] [22] [23] There are short comic books that are planned to be interspersed in them, similar to the broadsheets in Era Two. [24] There are going to be allomancy-involved sports, [25] and various characters are planned to be Twinborn with "really neat combinations." [26] It is planned to take place fifty to seventy years after Era Two, [27] by which time the Southern Scadrians will be well-known to the rest of Scadrial. [28] It will put more focus upon Kelsier and Trell. [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] MeLaan is also expected to play a role. [34] Possible Cyberpunk Mistborn Trilogy [ edit ] Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians · The Scrivener's Bones · The Knights of Crystallia · The Shattered Lens · The Dark Talent · Bastille Versus the Evil LibrariansBrandon has interest in writing a "Cyberpunk" Mistborn trilogy between Eras Three and Four. [35] [36] Whether he writes it depends on how Era Three plays out [37] and if he feels he has enough time to write more books before he gets too old. [38] [39] The books would be similar in length to Era Two (around 100,000 words) [20] and be written around the same time as the second half of the Stormlight Archive. [40] This trilogy would become Era Four and push space age Mistborn to Era Five [40] and put Mistborn up to a fitting sixteen books. [41] If a whole trilogy isn’t feasible he wants to at least write a novella. [42] Nothing about the characters or plot are known but Brandon wants to play with unsealed metalminds as cyberpunk-esque “metallurgic wetware”. [43] Intrigue, politics, and conspiracies mesh complexly in a world Sanderson realizes in satisfying depth and peoples with impressive characters.” I think that rule—building something up, rather than tearing something down—is an even more difficult task than than overthrowing an enemy. We begin this book with Elend Venture on the throne, and Kelsier’s former crew forming his most trusted advisors and government officials. The city is under siege from Straff Venture, Elend’s father, a vicious tyrant. In one sense, the novel is about Elend, Vin, and the rest of the team struggling with politics and armies as they try not to lose control of the city.
