THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE

A COMPANION STORY TO THE ORIGINAL MISTBORN TRILOGY

****

There's always another secret.

Mistborn: Secret History is a companion story to the original Mistborn trilogy.

As such, it contains HUGE SPOILERS for the books Mistborn (The Final Empire), The Well of Ascension, and The Hero of Ages. It also contains very minor spoilers for the book The Bands of Mourning.

Mistborn: Secret History builds upon the characterization, events, and worldbuilding of the original trilogy. Reading it without that background will be a confusing process at best.

In short, this isn't the place to start your journey into Mistborn (though if you have read the trilogy - but it has been a while - you should be just fine, so long as you remember the characters and the general plot of the books).

Saying anything more here risks revealing too much. Even knowledge of this story's existence is, in a way, a spoiler...

This book is amazing. It gives great insight into what Kelsier was doing after his death, between what he was doing before he pops back up in other stories.

******* SPOILER FOR RHYTHEM OF WAR *******

Kelsier has shown up on Roshar, the Stormlight Archive world. He is the leader of the ghost bloods and seems to be working towards something grand (more grand than ascending to a God it seems).

I really hope that Brandon ends up writing secret history parts 2 and 3, because I'd love to know how he finally gets off Scadrial and whether or not he interacts with Hoid some more.

Excellent book. Highly recommend for Cosmere fans+
