Mistborn

«Mistborn» is the first installment of Brandon Sanderson's captivating trilogy, «Mistborn». This is an epic fantasy filled with intrigue, magic, unexpected twists, and charismatic characters. Prepare for a journey into a world where hope can ignite even in the darkest corners and ordinary people can change the fate of an entire empire.
Welcome to the Final Empire — a world where the sun never rises and the sky is always shrouded in a gray mist. Where ash falls from the heavens and vegetation dies before it can even grow. Where the mighty Lord Ruler has reigned over humanity for a thousand years with invincible power and merciless cruelty.
Under this oppressive rule lives Kelsier — a legendary thief, a master of allomancy (magic that grants power from burning metals), and the only person to ever escape the horrific Pits of Hathsin, where he was tempered and broken. He harbors a daring plan: to overthrow the Lord Ruler, do the impossible, and free humanity.
