The Lost Metal: A Mistborn Novel

Product Information

El metal perdido" tiene el mismo ritmo frenético que sus predecesores, con momentos cargados de acción y tensión, equilibrados con otros tiernos y entrañables entre sus personajes, aderezado todo ello con una cantidad ingente de referencias a otros libros pertenecientes al Cosmere. El desarrollo de los personajes sigue siendo tan magistral como lo fue hasta el momento, con arcos que te dejan el corazón en un puño, otros que te dan descanso y alivio y otros que te hacen soltar alguna lagrimilla traicionera. Porque sí, el humor sigue estando muy presente, pero eso no quiere decir que no lo vayáis a pasar mal, os lo aseguro. 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. I would like to extend a special thanks to my good friends Kalyani and Rahul, longtime beta readers, who have been encouraging me for years to look into Indian mythology and lore for inspiration for fantasy storytelling. They provided excellent consultation in this book on a certain character who the three of us worked on together to try to expand the Cosmere a little bit in this direction." He wasn’t merely fighting Wayne the amiable miscreant. He was fighting Wayne Terrisborn, filthy rich snob with way, way , too much much money to burn.”

He was killed by the Lord Ruler in The Final Empire, but managed to stay as a "ghost" (cognitive shadow) and later bound his spirit to a body. Let's end this review, shall we? The Lost Metal is a spectacular and explosive ending to Mistborn: Wax and Wayne series. It is a half Mistborn half Cosmere crossovers novel. Though a finale is relatively rare in his career, with The Hero of Ages and The Lost Metal, Sanderson proved how great he is at writing a concluding volume in the Cosmere. And this quantity won't stay this way for long. We will have the conclusion to Skyward series next year and then the conclusion to The Stormlight Archive Part 1 the year after. I feel blessed to partake in this decades-long Cosmere adventure. And without a doubt, The Lost Metal is my second favorite Mistborn installment in the entire Mistborn Saga, up there with Mistborn: The Final Empire, just slightly below The Hero of Ages which I'm completely biased on. Thank you so much, Brandon Sanderson, for producing another exceptional novel and concluding book in The Mistborn Saga and The Cosmere. I am equally rewarded and brimming with questions and theories. I am looking forward to reading the third era of the saga whenever it's ready. Until then, to all of you reading this review. If there is one message from the book and series we should remember, I think it is this: be kind.Sanderson, Brandon (December 18, 2014). "State of the Sanderson: December 2014". brandonsanderson.com . Retrieved August 31, 2017. The release will be accompanied by the Dragonsteel 2022 Convention, on November 14th and 15th.

Do you have to have read all the cosmere books to enjoy The Lost Metal? The answer to that is... no. While there are many cosmere references, they are not the most important thing about this book. Moreover, you are not supposed to understand all of these references. It is clear that Sanderson is setting up Mistborn Era 3 by hinting at different things Following completion of The Alloy of Law Brandon plotted out three more books, following the same characters, to finish the story. Brandon began writing The Lost Metal in April 2021, after he finished Cytonic, [2] and completed the first draft on August 4, 2021. [3] The second draft was completed on September 20, 2021, [4] and went to beta readers and Brandon's editor shortly thereafter; [5] the beta reads concluded some time in November. [4] The post-beta read edit was done by March 7, 2022; [6] it took more time to complete than Brandon had expected and resulted in the book growing longer than he had initially anticipated. [7] After that, Brandon did one final edit, which was done by May 24, 2022, before turning the book in to Tor [8] for a November 15, [1] 2022 release, around when the first two Era 2 books were released in leatherbound. [5] I would love to hear how people fared who don’t know their cosmere yet, though somehow I doubt The Lost Metal will hook newbies the way it hooks a cosmere veteran. I loved it so much I read through the night. And that’s not just because of the cosmere implications which enthralled me but also because of our beloved characters.

Did The Lost Metal spoil other books/series in Cosmere beyond Mistborn Saga? Mostly no. But yes, there is one that I (personally speaking, you might not agree) consider a spoiler for The Stormlight Archive. Ghostbloods is a major organization in The Stormlight Archive. Knowing its existence from reading The Lost Metal is not too much of a big deal. However, reading The Lost Metal will give away the identity of the leader behind Ghostbloods. In The Stormlight Archive, this was not revealed until the end of Rhythm of War. Speaking of spoilers, if you're reading The Lost Metal in an ebook format like I did, I think it would be wise to skip reading the table of content. It doesn't take a genius to predict a major event in The Lost Metal from the table of content.Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians · The Scrivener's Bones · The Knights of Crystallia · The Shattered Lens · The Dark Talent · Bastille Versus the Evil Librarians Brandon mentioned at JordanCon that he thinks there is a mention of the Shard Whimsy in the book.

Edit #5: It's the end of 2020 and thankfully cheeto head is no longer president so that's one good thing that happened. Now I just need this book to release 😩 Also please continue to wear masks around others. There is one more main character that developed the most in The Lost Metal other than Wayne: Marasi Colms. Marasi, to me, felt like an integral character overshadowed by the presence of the other characters in the previous books. Sure she has some moments in the spotlight, but relatively, they were repeatedly too short to remember. When I reread Mistborn: Wax and Wayne, I forgot most of her actions and roles in the series. Fortunately, this situation has been fixed thoroughly in The Lost Metal. The new duo of Marasi and Wayne was so good, and I can't go into details on this. But Marasi, together with other characters from other worlds and series, played an irreplaceable role in the plot of The Lost Metal. And I had a blast every moment of reading her POV chapters here. I have no doubt Cosmere fans will feel the same as I did. Sanderson, Brandon (August 31, 2017). "Oathbringer's Final Step". brandonsanderson.com . Retrieved August 31, 2017. Marasi Colms: A constable who is Steris' illegitimate half-sister, who is a Pulser, an Allomancer that can slow down time within a bubble, and uses her ability via grenades that stop time when thrown.had me so happy. These people have grown together so much. Wax and Steris as a couple, Marasi and Steris as sisters, Marasi and Wayne as partners, Wax and Marasi as friends, Wax and Wayne as brotherly best friends and now even Steris and Wayne get along. It just makes me so emotional. I love them all so much and I was so sad to be done with their story when I closed the book. It was a time of ashfalls and tyrants in The Hero of Ages. Drowned by the cloud of darkness, the power of an evil god, and surrounded by charred bodies, a new myth, legend, and group of heroes were forged. And the characters and story in the first trilogy became the foundational lore for the entire Mistborn: Wax and Wayne. Willingly or not, the events in The Lost Metal will traject the main characters of the second era of Mistborn Saga toward a similar path. They're guaranteed to become legends in the third era of Mistborn Saga, which, if all goes according to plan, will have its first installment might begin in the year 2025 or 2026.
