Books in this Series
#1 — Mistborn: The Final Empire
An introduction to the world of Scadriel, following a pair of Allomancers who use metals to fuel their magics. This unique system of magic is core to the world and those that can control all of the metals are seen as demi-gods.
#2 — The Well of Ascension
After the events of 'The Final Empire' Vin and Elend must navigate a difficult political climate. A good follow-up to book 1, though what felt like an un-necessary love triangle forced in.
#3 — The Hero of Ages
Cataclysm faces Scadriel after the events of 'The Well of Ascension.' Vin, Elend, and Sazed must work to prevent this, while also discovering the secrets of a different metal art. Good ending to Era 1 with consequences to ther greater Cosmere.
