Hello. I heard about the Mistborn series back in the late 2000s when I was waiting for R.A. Salvatore to come out with his next Drizzt book. Back then, I had a hard time deciding who impressed me more with an original trilogy.
Throughout the series I thought many things that were discussed were just another part of the book with no significant bearing on the story. The "reveal" in the third book did so well in bringing everything together that it completely shocked me in a way that no R.A. Salvatore book ever had. It is the single best trilogy of books I have ever read.
Recently, I discovered 3 more Mistborn books, so I decided to buy them. I am currently re-reading the original trilogy before I dive in to the second set. I hope it does not disappoint.
