The Lost Metal

A Mistborn Novel

By: Brandon Sanderson

Narrated by: Michael Kramer

Return to #1 New York Times bestseller 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 organization 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 the capital, Elendel, and the Outer Cities only favors the Set, and their tendrils now reach to the Elendel Senate - whose corruption Wax and his wife, 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 realizes that the Set must already have it, an immortal kandra serving Scadrial's god, Harmony, reveals that Bilming 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.

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.©2018 Dragonsteel Entertainment LLC

Great conclusion to the era

he did it again, of course. what a great read and story. not as deep as his other work of era1. But very likeable and loved the character arcs

An overall very enjoyable book

It sets up the larger Cosmere, and is in it self enjoyable. I reccomend.

I love Wayne!

I love seeing the pieces of the Cosmere linking. Can’t wait to see how it unfolds.

Great Conclusion

Excellent listen, awesome book.
Great way to conclude the second era. As always Brandon Sanderson can do no wrong.
Michael Kramer is a excellent narrator!

Mists and Metals with a Cosmere

Ok - I’m not spoiling - I enjoyed it, the key personalities from the previous Wax & Wayne tomes are back, older and…. Evolved… yet there are a few Mistborn characters intervening as well.
I enjoyed the ride, yet felt a little undone at the end - clearly Brandon has set me up for more from the Cosmere. When Hmmm?

Oh and Michael Kramer is amazing - The Wayne with accents and Teris people work is fantastic…
