The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson Book Summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, the Mistborn series is a heist story of political intrigue and magical, martial-arts action.

Three hundred years after the events of the Mistborn trilogy, Kelsier and Vin have passed into the realm of history and myth, and the world of Scadrial is on the verge of modernity. In the frontier lands known as the Roughs, the old magics are a crucial tool for those who establish order and justice.

One such is Waxillium Ladrian, a rare Twinborn, who can Push on metals with his Allomancy and use Feruchemy to become lighter or heavier at will. After twenty years in the Roughs, tragedy has driven Wax back to the metropolis of Elendel. Now he must reluctantly put away his guns and assume the duties of the head of a noble house. But when a gang of Allomancers turn to train robbery and kidnapping, Wax will soon learn that the mansions and elegant tree-lined streets of the city can be more dangerous than the dusty plains of the Roughs.

Brilliant and highly creative.. I can't recall another author who was take a system of "magic", and propelled to to a future time with different characters into a somewhat different genre. This would be classified as a Western fantasy science fiction mystery, I think. Creative as Sanderson is there are some of the same tired PG tropes that he sticks to, with the proper but counterculture protagonist, arranged marriages, unconsummated relationships with "pure" young women who would never dream of violating their chaste lifestyle. There's a certain way that he shies away from "dishonorable" thinking that makes the characters slightly less then lifelike, but it's also what is too often seen in the fantasy genre. That being said, this is an amazing book with creative and compelling plot lines, and well worth reading.

Short but unforgettable. Rich characters. Advanced Allomancy. Twist plot. Loved it.

Sweet. Ending. Not sure what to think of it though... Just weird

Thank you Robert Jordan!. Had you not asked Brandon Sanderson to finish your series, I would have most likely passed over this series. I am securely hooked on it now and anxiously await more installments

Strung along to make more money. I've been avid reader of Brandon Sanderson's books. Clearly his greed is showing. This book is a cliffhanger.

Good segue from series. I very much enjoyed this book. It had a link to the Mistborn trilogy while standing on its own. I enjoyed the wit and humor and action. I also appreciate how clean his books are. No inappropriate scenes or horribly foul language.

Great. Excellent follow up to the mistborn trilogy. Also much more humor... Would love to read more about Wayne. Great character !

Good but short.. Sanderson's original Mistborn books were over 600 pages apiece. While the Alloy of Law was a good read, 11.99 for a 378 page e-book seems a little on the high side to me. Love his writing style just not his price point.

Sweet and...short. Alloy of law is a great book but after "The way of kings," which took a week to read, starting and finishing this book in one evening is disappointing. If you buy from the apple store check the number of pages it has before you buy, you may want to wait for a better price, I wish I had.

Great read, bad timing. I Had a lot of fun reading this BS book. It was interesting to return to the mistborn world several generations after Hero concludes. My only complaint is that Brandon is so busy with other projects, it will be too long a wait to get back for the next installment in this story. For a writer as prolific as BS, it doesn't seem fair to complain about him not producing enough....but it's going to be frustrating. Sigh

Great Book. I really enjoyed this continuation of the Mistborn series. A worthy and interesting story. I hope he finds time to write more. (He set it up nicely, but he seems to have so many projects that I don't know how he'll find the time.)

OMG r0x@r pwnnnn!!! Awesome!. Awesome pwnnn

The alloy of law. It's not near as good as the mist borne series and you should not have taken the hero status from vin.she was the most enteresting of all themistbourns.she was great

Alas! Too short.... If you are a fan of the Mistborn Trilogy, you need no explanation from me on why you need to read this great new chapter. Unfortunately, it wasn't much longer than a chapter. And more Hoid please!

Gets worse from here.. I'm a huge mistborn fan, and the first three books are incredible! But, you can tell this book isn't as good. It's short, the characters are bland and lack depth, and the book is a bit short. If you like the first three I'd say maybe get it, but don't set you expectations high.

This is a fantastical fantasy. with action galore, crazy magic powers and truly adept dialogue all wrapped up in a stellar book I thoroughly enjoyed.

PoppyMark. Imaginative...entertaining!

Better than expected. A new twist on the mistborn theme. I wasn’t expecting much but found the read surprisingly enjoyable.

Nice But Too Short. Loved Wax and Wayne. Hope to see more of them. A little pricey for just 328 pages.

Yet another great Sanderson book. Keep em coming. After finishing the Mistborn Trilogy, and now The Alloy of law, I am pleased to say that Sanderson is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. His attention to detail coupled with great description leaves the reader craving more. The world he has created feels real to the imagination and one dives head first into the lives of its people. Well done. I can wait to get caught up with The Wheel of Time Series Brandon completed for Robert Jordan. Yet another one of my favorite series.

Not as good as the mistborn triology. It's like wild wild west whith allomancy, the first three books were far better.

Want more!!. It was a good read, bringing in references from the previous mistborn books and creating a new world of allomancers. I just wish it were a bit longer, and feel a little huffy since i paid so much for it. I still want the next book though!

Great Book. I loved the way he moved through time from the mistborn trilogy to this book and created characters that are bigger than life I highly recommend this book.

Waited too long. I loved the Mistborn Series. So unique and inventive. For some reason I turned away for this follow up series and deeply regret it now. I finished this book before I even realized it and am super excited to start the next in the series. Thank you Brandon. Your books are wonderful.

Excellent start to phase 2. I really enjoyed this book and have always loved this sort of setting. I felt like the characters were more fleshed out and there was a little less “magic” to sort through and follow.

Alloy of Law. Again, Sanderson creates a memorable set of character's which draw you in to the tangled story. The first of this series is Mistborn, so start there. Also now one of my all time favorites.

Short but sweet. Sanderson shines with his fluid story telling without long inner monologues that plague other authors.

Unexpected. This was ok, I guess. After reading the Trilogy I was expecting a little more. I would love to read a book written a generation or two after the Trilogy. This book just left unanswered questions for me I could have done without.

Great book. Loved it
