Description
The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson is the second novel in the Mistborn fantasy series and continues the story of a world reshaped after the fall of the Lord Ruler.
With the tyrant defeated, Vin—once a street orphan and now a powerful Mistborn—finds herself at the centre of political instability and rising religious fervour. As factions struggle for control of the city of Luthadel, tensions escalate into a full-scale siege that threatens the fragile new order.
