MISTBORN TRILOGY BOXED SET

Book 1 - A world where ashes have fallen from the sky for 1000 years, the sun is a distant memory, and life is a relentless grind of slavery and drudgery. This is the world under the rule of The Lord Ruler, a tyrant who is believed to be immortal and a god who ruled over The Final Empire for 1000 years. In this oppressive society, people don’t dare to lift their heads, fight for their rights, or even dream of freedom. But everything changes when Kelsier, a legendary thief who survived an encounter with The Lord Ruler, decides to attempt the impossible: to ignite a rebellion and overthrow the Lord Ruler and end his rule over The Final Empire. Given the book's popularity and the compelling introduction to its world in the first few chapters, I had high hopes. I'm extremely pleased to say that the book lived up to its promise, delivering a thrilling and satisfying read. Divided into five parts, the author plunges readers into a vast, complicated, and gloomy world. The story gradually and seamlessly introduces Allomancy and the complex world, alongside the characters' ambitious and resilient spirits, their audacious plans and their execution, as well as the action, adventure, and political intrigue. The Final Empire is an engrossing and exceptional fantasy, featuring a richly complex world and a uniquely innovative magical system. Book 2 - Similar to The Final Empire, the plot and world-building are the shining stars of The Well of Ascension. Split into six parts, the story is packed with twists, political intrigue, assassination attempts, betrayal, backstabbing, the burdens of leadership, faith, identity, and profound character growth. The initial parts offer a concise summary of the first book and scattered essential information, crucial for understanding the series. These sections primarily focus on world-building, depicting the turbulent state of The Final Empire following the demise of the Lord Ruler, and the struggles faced by Luthadel and Kelsier's crew — struggles that can only be described as dire. While much of the magic system was was explained in the first book, I found delight in revisiting Breeze's soothing abilities, a Thug's raw strength, Vin's allomancy, and Sazed's Feruchemy. There is another metal introduced in this book - duralumin. It was interesting to see how it works and how Vin was experimenting it. Not just that but we get more details about the Deepness and another scribe they find about the author of Lord Ruler's Logbook mentioning what happened during The Well of Ascension that helps Vin and Sazed to find out about the change in the mist. Even though it slowed the pace a little and we don't exactly see the Well until the end it still added intrigue to the story. I also enjoyed finally getting answers about Deepness, how Lord Ruler got the power, and how the Allomancers came to existence. Now I'm more interested in the mist and there are apparently two kind - one evil, likely called Ruin, and another good, perhaps called Preservation- and I can't wait to know more about them in third book. Overall, The Well of Ascension is a thrilling sequel delivering a compelling narrative driven by weaving action-packed sequences, intriguing plot twists and turns, and remarkable character development. It was truly deeply satisfying experience. Book 3 - The Hero of Ages perfectly takes readers to the end of The Final Empire and literally. It started started a year after the end of The Well of Ascension, when Vin released Ruin, a destructive god-spirit determined to bring the world to its end. Told from multiple perspective of Vin, Sazed, Spook, Elend, Tensoon and Marsh, The Hero of Ages is is filled with twists and turns, complex characters, and deep world-building. There is extensive information about God Spirits- Ruin and Preservation, Hemalurgy, and the creation of inquisitors, Kandra, and Koloss. Amidst politics, bloodshed, and a race to defeat the god spirit, the characters have their own battles to fight. The Hero of Ages ties up many loose ends and answers many questions I had from previous books like – why the world is colorless, why there is ash and sun is red and why it happened when Lord ruler started ruling; what The Well of Ascension truly was; how Allomancers were created and where that power came from; how the inquisitors are made and so Koloss and Kandra; What was that spike in Zane’s body; and why Vin kept hearing Reen’s voice even though she came to terms with what he did to her. I still have questions about why Vin was chosen by preservation, why she still was powerful even though Elend had raw power, what happened to Marsh in the end and also those Koloss that were in the cavern. The ending was tragic and shocking, yet made sense and fulfilled the prophecy. As I mentioned in my reviews of previous books, it didn’t invoke the emotions. It should have been emotionally devastating but it left me feeling more shocked and surprised than deeply moved. Overall, The Hero of Ages is epic conclusion of Mistborn trilogy. It is truly mind-blowing, unputdownable fantasy filled with rich and complex world, and compelling characters.

The Mistborn trilogy is one of the best epic high-fantasy novel series out there. The word building, the plot, the characters, everything is amazing. It’s about an exceptionally talented crew from the suppressed race trying to over throw the Lord Ruler. Just when you think you have figured out what this is about, the story takes an unexpected turn. You think you know the end, and you’re reading just to see how the characters reach that end. But that is never true! The characters all very well written. They have some flaws, and you get to see what other people think of them. Some consider them heroes, while those close to them see things they lack and how the other members of the crew deal with it. Then there’s the hard magic system. Sanderson is a God when it comes to writing magic system. With hard rules on what can or cannot be done, the characters intelligently find ways to overcome the drawbacks. What makes this believable and acceptable is that they rules are never bent, and the limitations are constant throughout the series. I read it over a month ago and I’m still not over it!

I bought the Mistborn trilogy box set from Amazon for Rs. 1500. While I missed the sale price of Rs. 1200, I chose Amazon because I was sure I’d get the original set 📚, unlike many Instagram stores selling pirated copies for around Rs. 1000. These pirated versions may look similar in photos, but the quality is terrible—the paper is stiff, pages feel cheap, and the covers often peel. Spending a bit more for the authentic version is absolutely worth it. The box set I received from Amazon was securely packed in bubble wrap 📦 and arrived in mint condition. The books are crisp and high quality. The first volume had one or two slightly bent pages, but that’s not a big deal or a dealbreaker. The Mistborn trilogy is an excellent starting point for fantasy readers, and the story is as amazing as everyone says 🌟. Highly recommend this original box set—just go for it! 💯

Arrived in good condition, the boxed set is beautiful. However, the quality of pages could've been better. Nevertheless, great buy.

Terrific condition... Books are literally shining... Wonderful packaging

Just buy it and read it . It will going to become the best reading experience of your life and welcome to Brandon Sanderson work 😘😘

The set came out well, I was not expecting to get a sturdy box as the reviews were not good about it but came out well anyways. But the title of the first book on the spine of it is not right tho. As a nerd it's prickly.

A excellent trilogy to start you on reading Brandon Sanderson.

Ho sempre voluto leggere Mistborn ma allo stesso tempo ne sono sempre stata intimidita. Non lasciatevi ingannare dalla lunghezza dei libri; lo stile di Sanderson é scorrevolissimo e, superato lo scoglio dei primi capitoli introduttivi, la storia si legge tutta d'un fiato! Credo che Vin sia diventata una delle mie protagoniste preferite, ed il sistema magico é originalissimo. Se siete alla ricerca di un buon fantasy moderno, non potrete sbagliare con Mistborn! E il cofanetto é davvero bello ed economico!

Interested after reading WoT:The Gathering Storm, I decided to read other works of Brandon Sanderson. Each book had a good climax and the conclusion of the third book was very satisfying. The magic system was very well thought out and deep. I'd recommend this to any looking for a good fantasy read.

Los libros son geniales, desarrollo de mundo, sistema de magia, de personajes, de la misma historia. Físicamente los libros son compactos no lo más cómodo para leer pero se compensa por la historia

Entertaining from the start. A really nice variation on the "magic" theme that is pretty inventive. I have just started the 3rd book but so far I like where it's gone and where it seems to be going. There are some characters that I wish had not been let go so quickly, but it did make sense for the story. There is really good character development and for the most part I haven't come across anything that I completely disagreed with the author. I wont spoil anything because there are some nice twists. I wish that the series had one book more before Mistborn (technically book one), because I feel like there could have been a lot more development before the showdown that I felt happened to quickly. I also feel like one of the major hooks for moving the story was a little flat (I'll just call it the 11th gray area). All in all I am very glad I bought the trilogy to start this, and at this point anticipate that I will be continuing to purchase more of the series, I believe there are seven currently. I rate the world building a solid 9, the politics an 8, character development (and believable motivation) a raising 7, and the powers system a very well planned 9. Reading level is probably late teen because of more adult motivations for many characters and the political plot lines. It is an easy read with very few parts that you feel like you are just pushing onto the next story point, and it moves around enough to keep track of several story arcs without overwhelming you with questions that are not quickly resolved. **Google translated** 1541/5000 Von Anfang an unterhaltsam. Eine wirklich schöne Variation des "magischen" Themas, die ziemlich erfinderisch ist. Ich habe gerade mit dem 3. Buch begonnen, aber bisher gefällt mir, wo es hingegangen ist und wo es hingeht. Es gibt einige Charaktere, von denen ich mir wünschte, sie wären nicht so schnell losgelassen worden, aber es ergab Sinn für die Geschichte. Es gibt eine wirklich gute Charakterentwicklung und zum größten Teil bin ich auf nichts gestoßen, was ich mit dem Autor überhaupt nicht einverstanden war. Ich werde nichts verderben, weil es ein paar nette Wendungen gibt. Ich wünschte, die Serie hätte ein Buch mehr vor Mistborn (technisch gesehen ein Buch), weil ich der Meinung bin, dass es vor dem Showdown, den ich als schnell empfunden habe, viel mehr Entwicklungen geben könnte. Ich habe auch das Gefühl, dass einer der Hauptgründe für das Verschieben der Geschichte ein wenig flach war (ich nenne es einfach die 11. Grauzone). Alles in allem bin ich sehr froh, dass ich die Trilogie gekauft habe, um damit zu beginnen, und zu diesem Zeitpunkt erwarte ich, dass ich weiterhin mehr von der Serie kaufen werde. Ich glaube, es gibt derzeit sieben. Ich bewerte die Welt als solide 9, die Politik als 8, die Charakterentwicklung (und die glaubwürdige Motivation) als steigende 7 und das Kräftesystem als sehr gut geplante 9. Die Lesestufe ist wahrscheinlich spät im Teenageralter, da für viele Charaktere und die politischen Handlungsstränge mehr Motive für Erwachsene vorliegen. Es ist eine einfache Lektüre mit sehr wenigen Abschnitten, bei denen Sie das Gefühl haben, dass Sie nur auf den nächsten Story-Punkt drängen, und es bewegt sich so weit, dass Sie mehrere Story-Bögen verfolgen können, ohne Sie mit Fragen zu überhäufen, die nicht schnell gelöst werden.
