Summary
The #1
New York Times bestselling author returns to the world
of
Mistborn with his first novel in the series since
The Alloy of Law.
With
The Alloy of Law, Brandon Sanderson surprised readers
with a
New York Times bestselling spinoff of his Mistborn
books, set after the action of the trilogy, in a period
corresponding to late 19th-century America.
The trilogy's heroes are now figures of myth and legend,
even objects of religious veneration. They are succeeded by
wonderful new characters, chief among them Waxillium Ladrian,
known as Wax, hereditary Lord of House Ladrian but also, until
recently, a lawman in the ungoverned frontier region known as
the Roughs. There he worked with his eccentric but effective
buddy, Wayne. They are "twinborn," meaning they are able to use
both Allomantic and Feruchemical magic.
Shadows of Self shows Mistborn's society evolving as
technology and magic mix, the economy grows, democracy...
