Brandon Sanderson, fantasy's newest master tale spinner, author of the acclaimed debut "Elantris," dares to turn a genre on its head by asking a simple question: What if the hero of prophecy fails? What kind of world results when the Dark Lord is in charge? The answer will be found in the Mistborn Trilogy, a saga of surprises and magical martial-arts action that begins in "Mistborn." For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison. Kelsier "snapped" and found in himself the powers of a Mistborn. A brilliant thief and natural leader, he turned his talents to the ultimate caper, with the Lord Ruler himself as the mark. Kelsier recruited the underworld's elite, the smartest and most trustworthy allomancers, each of whom shares one of his many powers, and all of whom relish a high-stakes challenge. Only then does he reveal his ultimate dream, not just the greatest heist in history, but the downfall of the divine despot.But even with the best criminal crew ever assembled, Kel's plan looks more like the ultimate long shot, until luck brings a ragged girl named Vin into his life. Like him, she's a half-Skaa orphan, but she's lived a much harsher life. Vin has learned to expect betrayal from everyone she meets, and gotten it. She will have to learn to trust, if Kel is to help her master powers of which she never dreamed. Readers of "Elantris" thought they'd discovered someone special in Brandon Sanderson. "Mistborn "proves they were right.

看了第一部上册,抛开被诟病无数的翻译问题,个人觉得这部奇幻还是值得读下去,虽然在吃苍蝇般的译文里读故事会痛苦地皱眉。 很多奇幻故事的主角要么是上层贵族,要么是底层贱民,这次主角出自一个窃贼团伙,而且是个女贼。女主的奇幻作品较少看,印象中古国三部曲的莉芮尔是...
评分《迷雾帝国》系列小说其实不只在西方受到欢迎,除了台湾之外,在2009年起,日本就开始了陆陆续续的翻译工作。 跟台湾不同的是,台湾是依照英文的分册,从第一部到第三部来翻译,也因此每本书的的厚度都很可观,以第一部为例,已经超过700页,第二部的英文原文内容比第一部更多...
评分去年开刀切除胆结石的时候,看了这套【迷雾之子】,书很厚。很过瘾。 看的时候,我觉得这就是武侠小说。 三部曲。难得的是,每一部都是有阶段性结局的。看完一部你可以休息一下,虽然还有一些未解的谜团,但故事的大致走向都交代清楚了。 我不会剧透,但是谈论这本书,还是...

评分真棒 Brandon Sanders还是适合写这种类型的 典型的他的风格 结构简单而又富有创意的特殊能力/魔法体系 浅显易懂并不晦涩的行文 鲜明特出的角色性格 虽然世界观设定及不上时轮或者冰火那样宏大 但故事还是非常精彩 2015.02.01—2015.03.17

评分BS的语言水平跟阿西莫夫有的一比…很朴素;细微的冲突解决方面经常性无力;人物塑造跟几个奇幻大师没法比。但是…看的让人很爽很欲罢不能。
