There is simply no other way to describe what he's managed to pull off in this transcendent final volume of his Mistborn trilogy." -- RT Book Reviews (Gold Medal, Top Pick!) on The Hero of Ages "It's rare for a fiction writer to have much understanding of how leadership works and how love really takes root in the human heart. Sanderson is astonishingly wise." -- Orson Scott Card "Sanderson is crafting an extremely well-thought out saga with Mistborn , one that looks to stand above the pack of his literary peers. The magic system is perfectly detailed, the world, though not completely revealed, has a great sense of natural logic to it, and the characters are a reflection of both." -- SFF World "Intrigue, politics, and conspiracies mesh complexly in a world Sanderson realizes in satisfying depth and peoples with impressive characters." -- Booklist on Mistborn "Highly recommended to anyone hungry for a good read." -- Robin Hobb on Mistborn "Enjoyable, adventurous read." -- Locus on Mistborn, Praise for Brandon Sanderson and the Stormlight Archive Over 10 million Stormlight Archive books sold!
