Summary
The Mistborn trilogy has become a firm favourite with fantasy fans the world over. The imagination that Sanderson brought to the series and his skill at marshalling epic storylines and dramatic action, plus his ability to create vivid characters, made him a natural choice to complete Robert Jordan's epic Wheel of Time sequence. But with Mistborn, his stand-alone fantasies, and his new series, The Stormlight Archive, Sanderson has shown his bountiful talents in his own fiction.
Now he returns to the series that made his name with a new story set years after the events of Hero of Ages.
In a world recovering only slowly from evil, a world where allomancers wield immense power through their ability to unleash the magic bound up in common metals, someone who can burn metals that no-one has burned before can tip the balance....
Sanderson has the knack of giving epic fantasy listeners exactly what they want. This ability has thrown him to the forefront of the genre and the dramatic story within The Alloy of Law shows off this skill to its very best.

Great continuation
Love what Sanderson does with his plots across books in a series. He sets up a scenario and delivers a great yarn, then with the next book reveals all is not as it seems. This is Mistborn all over.

Great listen!
I loved the original Mistborn novels, so I was really pleased to see Brandon Sanderson had decided to add more to it. While the basics in this novel are the same as the original series, it does have a totally different feel to it - totally different time/different characters etc, and wile some may think this is a typical spin off that is aimed at making more money off the back of the originals success, they would be wrong. It could have been a great stand alone story even without reading the previous novels (although it might have been a little confusing), but having read the previous novels allowed a much more thorough understanding of the universe the book is set in. Great listen - thoroughly recommend

I love crime novels, and this is like Brandon Sanderson x crime novel, so the best of both worlds, really!

Great.
Another great story and an outstanding performance narrating it. I like the Wild West era that Mistborn has reached. I can't wait to listen to the next books.

Kramer is an absolute boss
The book is excellent, not as good as the first 3 in mistborn but faster paced. Narration is absolutely top quality.

A great Yarn
Having read the first three Mistborn books a few years ago this book had been on my 'get around to' list for a while. Now completing it on Audible I'm happy I did. a shorter lighter read than the heavier Mistborn trilogy, this sequel quite creatively moved the time line forward to a pseudo-Wild West setting with superimposed magic (of the familiar Allomancy and Ferochemical variety).
The characters aren't especially original but they are fun. Disaffected noble returns from his time as a law keeper in the Roughs. Sidekick is a cheeky rogue. Love interest a book-ish prim type, with hidden depths. Bad guy seemingly unbeatable. Yet what pulls it out of mediocrity is a sense of humour, action, and a true cinematic style to the narrative. I enjoyed it, and enjoyed Sanderson's light style of fantasy.
definitely be reading the next two.
