When Calamity lit up the sky, the Epics were born. David’s fate has been tied to their villainy ever since that historic night. Steelheart killed his father. Firefight stole his heart. And now Regalia has turned his closest ally into a dangerous enemy.
David knew Prof’s secret, and kept it even when Prof struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. Once the Reckoners’ leader, Prof has now embraced his Epic destiny. He’s disappeared into those murky shadows of menace Epics are infamous for the world over, and everyone knows there’s no turning back.
But everyone is wrong. Redemption is possible for Epics—Megan proved it. They’re not lost. Not completely. And David is just about crazy enough to face down the most powerful High Epic of all to get his friend back. Or die trying.

About Brandon Sanderson
Brandon Sanderson writes stories of the fantastic: fantasy, science fiction, and thrillers. Best known for his Mistborn series, he has also written The Reckoners, a Young Adult Superhero series; Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians, a Middle Grade fantasy series; and many more. He also finished Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series.
My family has loved this series about evil Epics and the Reckoners who fight them and of course, the bad metaphors. I admit there were several aspects to this story that left me with more questions than answers and I struggled at times to see how everything fit together. But, overall, a terrific finish to the series!
