Their young true love really shed light to the darkness of the ash-covered Final Empire world.Īfter having so many friends telling me how great the series is, I came across the trilogy at TIBE (Taipei International Book Exhibition) and decided to buy it all, hoping I would eventually get to read it if the set was sitting on my bookshelf. Vin, disguised as Valette Renoux, encountered a weird yet seemingly genuine young man, Elend Venture, during her undercover ball missions. The book is about their adventure and life leading up to and a little after the event, and therefore jam-packed with action.Īpart from the crew’s plan, there is also this romantic element in the story. Kelsier, a powerful Mistborn, led a skaa rebellion and with his inane yet clever plan, his crew tried to throw Luthadel into chaos, ultimately hoping to seize the tyrant, Lord Ruler. ‘People are attracted to vision.’ (Kelsier)
