Mistborn: Secret History is a companion story to the original Mistborn trilogy.
As such, it contains HUGE SPOILERS for the books Mistborn (The Final Empire), The Well of Ascension, and The Hero of Ages. It also contains very minor spoilers for the book The Bands of Mourning.
Mistborn: Secret History builds upon the characterization, events, and worldbuilding of the original trilogy. Reading it without that background will be a confusing process at best.
In short, this isn’t the place to start your journey into Mistborn. (Though if you have read the trilogy—but it has been a while—you should be just fine, so long as you remember the characters and the general plot of the books.)
Saying anything more here risks revealing too much. Even knowledge of this story’s existence is, in a way, a spoiler.
There’s always another secret.
Brandon’s major books for the beginning of 2016 are The Bands of Mourning , the sixth Mistborn novel, and Calamity , the finale of the Reckoners trilogy.
He also released his longest novella yet, Mistborn: Secret History , which explores behind the scenes of the original Mistborn Trilogy and thus is filled with spoilers for those three books; it also has some spoilers for The Bands of Mourning.
Brandon Sanderson was born in 1975 in Lincoln, Nebraska. As a child Brandon enjoyed reading, but he lost interest in the types of titles often suggested to him, and by junior high he never cracked a book if he could help it. This changed when an eighth grade teacher gave him Dragonsbane by Barbara Hambly.
Brandon was working on his thirteenth novel when Moshe Feder at Tor Books bought the sixth he had written. Tor has published Elantris , the Mistborn trilogy and its followup The Alloy of Law , Warbreaker , and The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance , the first two in the planned ten-volume series The Stormlight Archive. He was chosen to complete Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series; 2009’s The Gathering Storm and 2010’s Towers of Midnight were followed by the final book in the series, A Memory of Light , in January 2013. Four books in his middle-grade Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians series were released by Scholastic, and his novella Infinity Blade Awakening was an ebook bestseller for Epic Games accompanying their acclaimed Infinity Blade iOS video game series. Two more novellas, Legion and The Emperor s Soul , were released by Subterranean Press and Tachyon Publications in 2012, and 2013 brought two young adult novels, The Rithmatist from Tor and Steelheart from Delacorte.
The only author to make the short list for the David Gemmell Legend Award six times in four years, Brandon won that award in 2011 for The Way of Kings. The Emperor’s Soul won the 2013 Hugo Award for Best Novella. He has appeared on the New York Times Best-Seller List multiple times, with five novels hitting the #1 spot.
Currently living in Utah with his wife and children, Brandon teaches creative writing at Brigham Young University.

坦白说,初读时我有点被那些层出不穷的术语和复杂的家族关系绕晕了,感觉像是直接被扔进了一个巨大的迷宫里,四处都是陌生的标记和古老的誓言。但正是这种初期的“迷失感”,反而成了后期爆发式理解的铺垫。当一些关键性的线索终于串联起来时,那种豁然开朗的快感,简直无与伦比。作者非常擅长埋设伏笔,很多你一开始觉得无关紧要的对话或场景描写,到故事的后半部分会以一种惊人的方式回响,让你忍不住拍案叫绝,感叹作者布局之深远。我尤其欣赏其中对“权力腐蚀人心”这一主题的探讨,它没有用简单的黑白来划分角色,而是将人性中的灰色地带描绘得淋漓尽致,让你在为英雄欢呼的同时,也会对那些“反派”产生一丝微妙的理解和同情。这本书的深度,绝对不是那种一目了然的爽文能比拟的,它需要你投入心力去挖掘和品味。
评分从纯粹的动作场面来看,这本书的编排也令人血脉偾张。那些关于如何运用特定能力进行战斗的描述,完全跳脱了传统奇幻的窠臼。作者似乎对物理学的某些基础概念有着独特的理解,并将这些应用到了超自然力量的展现上。每一次能力的释放,都不是凭空而来,而是伴随着严格的代价和清晰的运作机制,这极大地增强了战斗的可信度和紧张感。尤其是在描绘大规模的冲突时,视角转换得非常流畅,时而聚焦于个体英雄的绝地反击,时而拉远到整个战局的走向,让人仿佛置身于硝烟弥漫的前线,能够清晰地判断局势的利弊。我读到好几个关键打斗场面时,心跳都跟着加速了,必须放下书喝口水才能继续,那种纯粹的、肾上腺素飙升的阅读体验,是很多追求“大场面”的作品所追求却难以达到的境界。
评分这本小说的对话设计简直是一门艺术,简直是教科书级别的“少说多做”的典范。很多时候,角色之间的交锋并非依靠激烈的争吵或直接的对峙,而是隐藏在看似平淡的问答之中,话语的张力全都凝结在那几秒的沉默里。我尤其喜欢那些看似随意却充满机锋的唇枪舌战,每一次你以为抓住了对方的把柄,下一秒就会发现自己早已落入了更深的陷阱。这种智力上的博弈,远比单纯的武力展示更让人热血沸腾。而且,作者对不同角色心境的捕捉非常精准,即便是配角,他们的声音也极具辨识度,从不含糊不清。读完后,我甚至能想象出他们独特的语调和习惯性的动作,这种鲜活感是很多大部头作品难以企及的。它成功地将一场宏大的战争,浓缩进了每一次精准而致命的言语交锋之中。
评分这本书的开篇简直像一记重拳,直击灵魂深处。作者构建的世界观宏大而又细腻,那种金属的质感、火焰的灼热,甚至连空气中弥漫的硫磺味,都仿佛能通过文字触碰到。我花了很长时间才完全沉浸进去,不是因为情节晦涩,而是因为那些铺陈的细节实在太丰富了。你不得不佩服作者的想象力,他笔下的人物绝不仅仅是符号,他们有着深沉的过去和复杂的动机,每一个决定都牵动着无数人的命运。读到一半时,我甚至不得不停下来,去查阅一下关于炼金术和特定魔法体系的背景资料,那种渴求了解更多的冲动是很少有的。叙事节奏的把握堪称教科书级别,在最紧张的时刻戛然而止,吊足了胃口,让人不得不熬夜去探寻真相。整体而言,它提供了一种近乎身临其境的阅读体验,让你不仅仅是在“看”故事,更像是在“经历”一场史诗般的洗礼。
评分然而,这本书最让我反复回味的部分,并非那些史诗般的战斗或错综复杂的阴谋,而是其对“信仰”与“怀疑”之间永恒拉锯战的深刻洞察。它探讨了人们在面对无法理解的力量或制度时,是如何构建自己的世界观,以及当这些基石开始动摇时,内心的恐惧与挣扎。书中对于历史记载的不可靠性和英雄神话的逐步解构,处理得极为冷静和客观,没有急于下定论,而是将选择的权利交给了读者。读完后,我感觉自己对许多既有的观念都产生了某种程度的审视和动摇,这是一种非常难得的、具有哲学思辨价值的阅读体验。它成功地将一个奇幻故事提升到了对人性与真理的追问层面,让它具备了超越类型文学的持久生命力,绝对是值得反复咀嚼的佳作。
评分迷雾之子正传的番外,或者说是一条隐藏的暗线。通过神瑛的设定,串联了作者笔下的各个星球,从而奠定了三界宙的架构。依兰翠和白沙的人类也在这里客串。
评分补一个标记……这部让我彻底磕上了Kelsier/Hoid这对……互揍的那段太带感了(不)阿凯后期一只眼打了血金术钉子的造型也很帅!

评分作为世界设定拓展的补充,也算是第一个三部曲幕后剧情的解读,但是情节稍微枯燥
