A brand new Mistborn story from an exceptionally commercial novelist; fantasy with a steampunk twist.

Description

The Bands of Mourning, the highly anticipated novel by Brandon Sanderson, invites readers back into the magical world of Scadrial, a realm that has evolved dramatically since the original Mistborn trilogy. Three hundred years after the events that reshaped the planet, technology and magic coexist in a vibrant, ever-changing society resembling a 19th-century frontier. Here, urban industrial advances mix seamlessly with the lingering echoes of ancient powers, creating a unique and captivating setting.

The story centres around Waxillium Ladrian, a nobleman with a flair for detective work. In his quest to uncover the truths behind mysterious artefacts and deceptions, Wax is lured into an adventure surrounding the legendary Bands of Mourning—mythical objects believed to grant incredible abilities to their wearer. Accompanied by his resourceful companion, Wayne, and the courageous constable, Marasi, they embark on a journey fraught with danger and intrigue that leads them to confront secrets long buried. This narrative brims with emotionally charged confrontations, cunning adversaries, and twists that defy expectations.

THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE

Sanderson's expert storytelling transforms this seemingly wild west-inspired civilisation into a richly imagined world where the lines between magic and emerging technologies blur beautifully. The author's fluent melding of these elements underscores his status as a master of the genre, delivering epic fantasy that stands the test of time.

300 YEARS AFTER THE EVENTS OF THE MISTBORN TRILOGY

For those who crave epic fantasy, Sanderson has become a luminary, deftly crafting narratives filled with intricate plots, dynamic characters, and profound world-building. His knack for delivering precisely what fans of the genre seek has not only catapulted him to the forefront but assured his works, including The Bands of Mourning, remain compelling and exhilarating.
