Mistborn was the first Sanderson book I read (and the first book after a years-long hiatus), and I binged Era 1 in 4 days. The world, the magic, the characters were so captivating I had a hard time putting it down. It still holds a very dear place in my heart, and I think I wouldn't be anywhere near the reader I am now if I hadn't read "ash fell from the sky" that summer two years ago. This was a fascinating insight into one of my favourite worlds - thank you, Brandon & team!

Reading all the allusions about mental illnesses like sizophrenia, or the scene in the second book where Sazed saw everything greyish too, while filling his mental powers… was soul touching. It had so many emotions and situations that I can relate to. I am no longer depressed and see everything normal, still the recalls are beautiful gruesome you could say. I hope to watch someday the movies of this masterpiece. Thank you for adding this experience on my way through life.

It was generic and essentially a parody of a hundred other things. But we loved it. A decade and a half later, we still discuss our story and continue to evolve it. He's married with twins, and I'm working on my first novel. And everytime I get in a car, the real world fades to the subconscious and i can comfortably rest into my world.
