Vin believed she was fulfilling the prophecy when she released the power hidden within the Well of Ascension. Instead, she unleashed something far worse.
Now Ruin, a godlike force of destruction, is free — and the world is beginning to break beneath earthquakes, fire, ash, and fear. As the end draws closer, Vin must face the devastating truth that the prophecies she trusted may have been twisted from the start.
Elend Venture, newly transformed into a Mistborn, searches for answers left behind by the Lord Ruler, hoping the tyrant they overthrew may have understood more about Ruin than anyone realized. But every clue raises more questions, and every legend feels uncertain in a world where even prophecy can be corrupted.
To stop Ruin from destroying everything, Vin must uncover the real truth behind the Hero of Ages — and decide what kind of sacrifice it will take to save a dying world.
Perfect for readers who love epic fantasy finales, apocalyptic stakes, ancient prophecies, powerful magic, gods and monsters, devastating twists, and characters fighting for hope at the end of the world.
