THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE

THE COLLECTOR'S TENTH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION OF MISTBORN BOOK TWO

The Dark Lord is dead, and now a new world can be built.

The impossible has happened. The Lord Ruler has been vanquished. But so too is Kelsier, the man who masterminded the triumph. The awesome task of rebuilding the world has been left to his protΓ©gΓ©, Vin, a one-time street urchin now the most powerful Mistborn in the land.

Worryingly for her, Vin has become the focus of a new religion, a development that leaves her intensely uneasy. More worryingly still, the mists have become unpredictable since the Lord Ruler died, and a strange vaporous entity is stalking Vin.

As the siege of Luthadel intensifies, the ancient legend of the Well of Ascension offers the only glimmer of hope. But no one knows where it is or what it can do...
