About this ebook

THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE
300 YEARS AFTER THE EVENTS OF THE MISTBORN TRILOGY

****

Join the hunt for a mysterious assassin

The criminal elite of Elendel were invited to an auction - which became a massacre, when an unknown assailant slaughtered everyone in attendance. Now Wax and Wayne, both able to use magic, both lawmen from the rough and ungoverned frontier territories, are on the case.

All the clues suggest the killer is a rogue kandra - a secretive, almost mythical, figure who acts from the shadows - called Bleeder . . . and that the governor is her next target. Bleeder, and the conspiracy behind the killings, has to be stopped . . . before the city is plunged into chaos.

I found this book a little disjointed. In my opinion the author tried to cover too many bases and Wax's defeat of the main protaganist was too glib. That aside, I still enjoyed reading this book.
