Ruin wants to end the world, and its near omniscience and ability to warp reality make stopping it seem impossible. Vin is consumed with guilt at having been tricked into releasing the mystic force known as Ruin from the Well. Having escaped death at the climax of The Well of Ascension only by becoming a Mistborn himself, Emperor Elend Venture hopes to find clues left behind by the Lord Ruler that will allow him to save the world. But as a result, the Deepness-the lethal form of the ubiquitous mists-is back, along with increasingly heavy ashfalls and ever more powerful earthquakes. To end the Final Empire and restore freedom, Vin killed the Lord Ruler. Now with over 10 million copies sold, The Mistborn Series has the thrills of a heist story, the twistiness of political intrigue, and the epic scale of a landmark fantasy saga.
