Newest Mindgasms Book Chat with Tristram Johnson and the Woke Centrist on The Well of Ascension, book 2 in era 1 of the Mistborn trilogy, by Brandon Sanderson. We talk about the fantasy killers with magic powers, called mistborn or mistings, the growing of influence of gods and religion in this fantasy world, how rulers take over control and manage an empire, juggle that with an impending war, and engage in political schemes to maintain power and avoid a hostile takeover. Also, we get into the awesome battles with magic powers, and compare Mistborn to other series within Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere, like The Stormlight Archive, and Elantris. We compare Mistborn to other fantasy series as well, including The Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings, First Law, The Dresden Files, and A Song of Ice Fire/Game of Thrones. The parallels between some aspects of Mistborn and the real world are also covered, like relationships, religion, and introversion vs. extroversion.

The Main character is Vin, who joins the rebel named Kelsier’s slave rebellion. There is an awesome and detailed hard magic system, and the plot also centers around heists, espionage, romance and a conspiracy to assassinate the Lord Ruler, the evil leader of the society:
