Brandon Sanderson - the international phenomenon who finished the Wheel of Time sequence - continues his smash-hit Mistborn fantasy trilogy.

The impossible has happened. The Lord Ruler is dead has been vanquished. But so too is Kelsier the man who masterminded the triumph. The awesome task of rebuilding the world has been left to his protege Vin; a one-time street urchin, now the most powerful Mistborn in the land.

Worryingly for her Vin has become the focus of a new religion, a development that leaves her intensely uneasy. More worryingly still the mists have become unpredictable since the Lord Ruler died and a strage vaprous entity is stalking Vin.

As the siege of Luthadel intensifies the ancient legend of the Well of Ascension offers the only glimmer of hope. But no-one knows where it is or what it can do...

A New York Times bestseller and a international smash-hit trilogy …

Review of 'The Well of Ascension' on 'Goodreads'

4.5 - A very good middle book that picks up right where the first left off, shows the struggle and changes and growth in all our favor characters, bringing in multiple new threats that are juggled quite well, and continues the mystery of the past and what role everyone truly plays excellently!

Like book two of LotR; not just a sequel

The Final Empire was one of the best fantasy books I'd read in years, and The Well of Ascension didn't disappoint. This one goes much deeper into politics and philosophy as well, and was overall a really fantastic book.

I don't think I could possibly have fit this into my schedule, as it's quite long, without Audible, but the Michael Kramer narration was, as for the previous book, absolutely top notch. Highly recommend.
