Introduce
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, the Mistborn Audiobook series is a heist story of political intrigue and magical, martial-arts action.
Mistborn: Shadows of Self Audiobook free is a high fantasy audiobook written by American author Brandon Sanderson. It was published on October 6, 2015 by Tor Books and is the second book in the Wax and Wayne series and fifth in the Mistborn series. It is preceded by The Alloy of Law Audiobook in 2011 and followed by The Bands of Mourning Audiobook in 2016.
Plot
Three hundred years after the events of the Mistborn Audiobook trilogy, Scadrial is now on the verge of modernity, with railroads to supplement the canals, electric lighting in the streets and the homes of the wealthy, and the first steel-framed skyscrapers racing for the clouds.
When family obligations forced Waxillium Ladrian to forsake the frontier lands and return to the metropolis of his birth to take his place as head of a noble House, he little imagined that the crime-fighting skills acquired during twenty years in the dusty plains would be just as applicable in the big city. He soon learned that there too, just being a talented Twinborn ― one who can use both Allomancy and Feruchemy, the dominant magical modes on Scadrial ― would not suffice.
This bustling, optimistic, but still shaky society will now face its first test by terrorism and assassination, crimes intended to stir up labor strife and religious conflict. Wax, his eccentric sidekick Wayne, and brilliant, beautiful young Marasi, now officially part of the constabulary, must unravel the conspiracy before civil strife can stop Scadrial’s progress in its tracks.
Mistborn: Shadows of Self Audiobook Review
I enjoyed Alloy of Law Audiobook, but I never felt it was as epic as the original trilogy. It’s tremendously fun, and the Vanishers needed to be vanquished, but it didn’t feel like it had the same scale and consequences.
Mistborn: Shadows of Self Audiobook changes that. I am now listinging to follow Wax on the journey I don’t think any of us saw coming. Socioeconomic trouble is brewing in Elendel, because apparently, even a god designed paradise can’t last forever. Wax and Wayne at hot the trail, and Marasi is definitely in the mix, now serving as part of the constabulary.
At the heart, I feel this is a story about characters, they’re coping with fantastic situations, but I really care and question these folks. Wax I on the hunt, and will do anything it takes to end this conflict. Wayne continues to delight with his wit and unique perspective on the world. Marasi must navigate what is lawful versus what is right, because once a pattern is seen, it cannot be unseen. Despite the world-shattering situations, this book feels very personal – because it is.
Every single soul has a chance to make a difference, for Preservation or Ruin.
Readers of previous Mistborn Audiobook will delight as this audiobook continues to tie into the history and mythos of the world, expanding without retreading the same themes. Sanderson continues to deliver extra, this story including some excerpts from the broadsheets giving more flavor to this new era Scadrial. Sanderson is a master storyteller, laying the ground work for the most poignant and dark reveals, while still making the read a fun ride you do not want to put down.
