Pros

  • I've finished the Mistborne trilogy (really good but not really wanting to continue the series right now)
  • I always recommend starting with the Mistborn trilogy
  • Mistborn trilogy: Allomancy, feruchemy and hemalurgy. These are two of the famous options.
  • I have listened to and loved Mistborn trilogy. Book ratings: 1st 5/5 2nd 4/5 3rd 5/5
  • I’m rereading the Mistborn trilogy after a very heavy horror streak and it’s both a great change of pace and helping cleanse the palate for my next dive into horror.

Cons

  • Try the cosmere by Brandon Sanderson, there’s something like 30 books. I’d start with the Mistborn trilogy
  • I enjoyed Mistborn, but wasn’t in love with it. What I love about reading is beautiful writing... and it’s the factor that’s made the other two fantasy series I’ve read stick with me.
  • I loved the first book and the latter two just didn't hold up as well for me, but they're solid and imaginative books. Just not as special as I expected, I suppose.

mistborn trilogy by brandon sanderson (honestly quick to get into, mc is new to the magic system so we are basically spoon fed, thrill ride plot with great reveals, satisfying ending think fma:b if you've seen it)
