About this eBook
Order the sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling novel Firefight today!
From the bestselling author of the Mistborn series and Words of Radiance comes Calamity, the final book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Reckoners series: Steelheart, Firefight, and Calamity.
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.

I've read most of Sanderson's other stuff and love it, I hugely enjoyed the three stories leading to this conclusion and was anxious to see how he wrapped it up, but it ultimately felt a little rushed and forced. Don't mistake me, if you've read the series to this point it's absolutely worth reading, it's just the first book of his I've read that I was left feeling like I would have taken it in a different direction.

A good ending but i still feel like this series could have had more gas in the tank. Abit short but thats not necessarily a bad thing.

I'm pretty sure I got hooked on a young adult series, but it was clever and entertaining. Thought the ending concluded rather conveniently, but what are you gonna do? An easy and fun read.
