![]() ![]() ![]() Set about 300 years after the dark (ash-filled) ages of the Final Empire/ Mistborn trilogy, Scadrial is evolving through scientific progress, much like late 1800s-early 1900s America in our world. In doing something rare in the fantasy genre, Sanderson has revealed the much bigger picture of where the Cosmere could be going. I ain't never died while wearing that hat." Originally reviewed: 15th May, 2021 “Wayne's a little attached to that hat," Waxillium said. However, it seems to be essential reading for not just Mistborn but the Cosmere as a whole. Overall, the Wax and Wayne books have much lighter characters and a smaller focus than the that of the original Mistborn trilogy. Sanderson wrote Wax and Wayne #1, The Alloy of Law, as a fun side project that slowly evolved into its own series. However, this late 1800s/ early 1900s approximation era was actually unplanned. Mistborn was always planned as a continuum across three series that would span from fantasy to science-fiction eras. Whilst the first Mistborn trilogy is the best bet for classic fantasy, I whole-heartedly recommend the follow-up quadrilogy which moves the setting forward into the industrial age. Read here for Part 1 of this series, the original Mistborn trilogy. ![]()
