Brandon Sanderson

The Eleventh Metal

Oh, this book made me realise, once again, how much of an awesome character Kelsier was! A short (and by Brandon Sanderson’s standards, a tiny) story about how Kelsier finds a purpose to do what he sets out to do in the 1st book of Mistborn Era 1: The Final Empire.

Worthy of 45 odd minutes I ended up spending finishing the story. More like 3.25/5 Stars

I've missed Kelsier so much I tried to pretend that everything's okay but it's NOT OKAY but it is now after reading this because Kelsier is okay😊

i can’t believe we got to see a glimpse of someone training kelsier to become a mistborn, instead of the other way round. i see he kept some his trainer’s eccentric techniques

A nice little expository piece of fiction, detailing some of Kelsier's backstory. It's been a while since I read the Final Empire Trilogy, so I can't actually remember what the Eleventh Metal is supposed to be, but I love the idea of Noblemen performing scientific research to discover it (although saving the Skaa is undoubtedly better).

it was a quick and fun read. that’s all.

Reading this after finishing the first Mistborn trilogy is an amazing experience. You understand much more details and makes it so great! ^^

This short story is a prequel to Mystborn, introducing Kelsier new to his powers, learning the basics of allomancy. It was apparently released in the guide to a tabletop game. It's meant to both be entertaining, and give the entire backstory to the world in 22 pages. Not something to be read on it's own, but an interesting backstory.

3.5. Short, sweet and nostalgic. It made me realise that I simply cannot get enough of Kelsier.

I'm going to be starting the Mistborn series in April so I thought I should read this first. It was interesting, but very short so I don't really have much to say about it.
