ALLOY OF LAW, THE by Brandon Sanderson - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK
See all titles by Brandon Sanderson.Fresh from the success of The Way of Kings, Brandon Sanderson,
best known for completing Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time®, takes a break
to return to the world of the bestselling Mistborn series.
Three
hundred years after the events of the Mistborn trilogy, Scadrial is now
on the verge of modernity, with railroads to supplement the canals,
electric lighting in the streets and the homes of the wealthy, and the
first steel-framed skyscrapers racing for the clouds.
Kelsier,
Vin, Elend, Sazed, Spook, and the rest are now part of history—or
religion. Yet even as science and technology are reaching new heights,
the old magics of Allomancy and Feruchemy continue to play a role in
this reborn world. Out in the frontier lands known as the Roughs, they
are crucial tools for the brave men and women attempting to 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,
Wax has been forced by family tragedy to return to the metropolis of
Elendel. Now he must reluctantly put away his guns and assume the duties
and dignity incumbent upon the head of a noble house. Or so he thinks,
until he learns the hard way that the mansions and elegant tree-lined
streets of the city can be even more dangerous than the dusty plains of
the Roughs.
