The Lost Metal: A Mistborn Novel: 7 (Mistborn Saga)

Product Information

There is a huge amount of deus ex amchina now implemented due to the extreme Cosmere tie ins, and it cheapens the thrill here when characters can come in and solve problems using powers that are only relevant in other books on other words. It ends up not really feeling like a mistborn book. This is the final book of Mistborn Era 2, or the 7th Mistborn book so far. As such, there's a lot I can't say due to spoilers - but this was a mostly satisfying conclusion to the Wax & Wayne era, with plenty of tidbits to get people excited for further Cosmere as well as specifically Mistborn Era 3. At Dragonsteel Mini-Con in 2021, Brandon did a reading of the second draft of chapter one and part of chapter two, which can be listened to and read here on Arcanum. You are whatever you want to be, Wayne. You’re the wind. You’re the stars. You are all endless things." The Lost Metal is an excellent book for fans of the cosmere and people that love Mistborn Era 2, but it is not perfect, and here is why. Almost all of Sanderson’s previous series have evident beginnings and ends, and it is usually a very self-contained story. In this one, you have a satisfying conclusion to the main characters’ arcs, but this last book does not feel like a proper, proper conclusion if that makes sense. Sanderson sets up some things that will be important for later series, and to be able to make that happen, Sanderson has to introduce a sub-plot that didn’t feel 100% as it belonged in this book. Some readers might not agree with this point here, but I didn’t feel like the plot was as tight as Shadow of Self and Bands of Mourning.

The short answer to that question is.. no. But that is not to say that this isn’t a good conclusion. Actually, I really enjoyed this book, but oh boy, there is so much to say. This will be 100% percent spoiler free. You can’t convict me on a hunch,” Wayne said, folding his arms. “I know my rights. Marasi’s always quoting them to people once we finish beating them up. I get a trial by my peers, I do.” At least in the first draft, there is a "very minor" plot point that involves a desiccated frog.

Ironically, his Atium stash is all but gone and without it his life would end. Wayne spun toward her, then—after just a brief pause—grinned widely. Those two were getting along better these days, which Wax enjoyed seeing. Ultimately, with Mistborn Era 1 we had an absolutely amazing ending that tied up the series in a beautiful way - and with Era 2 it ended up feeling like it didn't need to be written. This entire Era could have just been a wiki blurb, or at most a novella, and it would have served its purpose. The ending of Era 2 leaves with pretty much zero plot development and ends up just being a prelude for Era 3.

Tense diplomatic situations were not impressed by the presence of a five-year-old. But it could have been worse—he could have brought Wayne instead.” - Wax City folk, particularly politicians, were intimidated by small arms. They preferred to kill people with more modern weapons, like poverty and despair.” - WayneSeptember 19, 2022: I honestly can't decide if I should read the chapters Tor is releasing each Monday starting today until the book's release in November or if I can wait until the entire novel is out. What is everyone else doing?? I just re-read the first two chapters that are already out with the prologue - which had me tearing up. I'm not sure I can wait till 11/15! Set six years after the events of The Bands of Mourning, Wax is now more politician than lawman. Wayne is an actual constable now and Marasi’s partner. They’ve all had changes in their personal lives. Wax and Steris now have two kids, Max and Tindwyl. Marasi has been dating Allik for a couple of years. And Wayne, unfortunately, is feeling a bit down on account of the fact that MeLaan said she’s going to break up with him soon. Still, there is the problem of the Set and Trell looming over their heads. After a few years of quiet, Marasi now has a solid lead on what they’ve been doing this whole time and a way to catch them. She and Wayne travel to Bilming in the hopes of surprising one of the Set’s smuggling operations. What they discover is so much more than that and Wax is once again called to be Harmony’s sword as he joins them. Edit #8: 9 days into the new year and Bob Saget has passed away. One of my fave TV dads is dead. My heart hurts. I need November to come sooner. I need something good in my life. RIP Danny Tanner ❤️ Alright, let's talk a bit about Worldhopper characters. If you're a Cosmere fan like me, it's hard to imagine the possibility of the Worldhopper characters and their magic's existence in this book not becoming one of the highlights for you. It unquestionably was for me. Again, no spoilers on their identity, but there were at least eight Worldhopper characters from other worlds (mostly Sel) and series in this book. Most of these appearances and scenes are texts you should RAFO for yourself. I will, however, mention I am in awe of every scene involving two dominant Worldhoppers in The Lost Metal: Moonlight and TwinSoul. Moonlight (No, I will not tell you her identity) is one of my favorite characters in the entire Cosmere. Assuming that I'm not wrong, though. To see her appearing in The Lost Metal, exhibiting her magic system and playing a role in the story, made my heart soar with glee and excitement. I did not expect it at all, and it was a truly welcome surprise. And then there is TwinSoul, who I believe to be a completely new character in the Cosmere. Sanderson mentioned in the author's note at the beginning of the book:
