Publisher's summary

Return to New York Times best seller 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 organisation 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 Elendel and the Outer Cities only favours the Set, and their tendrils now reach to the Elendel Senate - whose corruption Wax and 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 realises that the Set must already have it, an immortal kandra serving Scadrial's god reveals that Harmony's power is blocked in Bilming. That means the city 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.

Harmony's vision of future possibilities comes to an abrupt halt tomorrow night, with only blackness after that. It's a race against time, and 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.

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

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!

An overall very enjoyable book

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

Waiting for part 3 🤭🤷‍♀️

Love it ❤️. Cant wait for more in this universe- and hope this was not all?

Best book of the cosmere so far!

This book touches a lot with the intricacies of the Cosmere and how investiture works. Highly recommend to read pretty much all the books there are right now in the Cosmere before reading this one, though it is not mandatory. It is absolutely fascinating how Brandon is slowly tying it all together!

Amazing

Brandon has done it again. Now I am going to put up a slow time buble and wait for the next one

a tremendous finish for a great series

this book deals with so much. a lot of open questions are answered, both from the main storyline and with a lot of Lore about the world. additional success.

Great read!

The last installment of Mistborne Era 2 does not disappoint. Mystery, plot twist and lots of lore... yeah

Great way to end Era 2!

If you love the Cosmere and Mistborn series this book is a must. The character development is amazing and it ties up loose ends yet leaves you with more questions which I really enjoy.

New Narrators Please

Most people love hearing Michael Kramer and Kate Reading narrate audiobooks, and their opinions are valid. It’s just a matter of preference though and I think it would be useful to get other narrators for the British audiobooks. I really did not enjoy Michael’s narration here, though I’m sure most will disagree. This is not a personal criticism, just a preference.

Narrators are essential for the enjoyment of an audiobook, and I feel the narration here hampered my experience.
