About the Book:

Return to #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson‘s Mistborn world of Scadrial as its second era, which began with The Alloy of Law, reaches its earth-shattering conclusion in The Lost Metal.

For years, frontier lawman turned big-city senator Waxillium Ladrian has hunted the shadowy organization known as the Set. The organization, led by his late uncle and sister, has been kidnapping people with Allomancy in their bloodlines. When Detective Marasi Colms and her partner, Wayne, discover stockpiled weapons bound for the Outer City of Bilming, they uncover a new lead. The brewing conflict between Elendel and the Outer Cities benefits the Set, whose corruption Wax and his wife, Steris, have been trying to expose in the Elendel Senate. Bilming, however, is even more entangled in the Set’s machinations.

Wax discovers a new type of explosive capable of unprecedented destruction and realizes the Set already possesses it. An immortal kandra, serving Scadrial’s god Harmony, reveals that Bilming is under the influence of another god, Trell, worshipped by the Set. As tensions rise, Marasi is recruited by offworlders with strange abilities who claim their mission is to protect Scadrial at any cost.

Wax must decide whether to set aside his rocky relationship with Harmony and embrace his role as the Sword that Harmony has groomed him to be. With the fate of Scadrial hanging in the balance, Wax must rise as the hero his world needs to prevent its sudden and calamitous ruin.

The Lost Metal masterfully combines political intrigue, action, and the mystical elements of the Cosmere, delivering a thrilling and satisfying conclusion to the second era of the Mistborn saga.
