Description

The #1 New York Times bestseller and sequel to Steelheart from Brandon Sanderson, the author of Oathbringer, coauthor of Robert Jordan’s The Wheel of Time series, and creator of the internationally bestselling Mistborn trilogy, presents the second book in the Reckoners series: Firefight. And don’t miss Calamity, the exciting conclusion to the Reckoners series!
   Newcago is free.
   They told David it was impossible, that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet Steelheart--invincible, immortal, unconquerable--is dead. And he died by David's hand.
   Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life simpler. Instead, it only made David realize he has questions. Big ones. And no one in Newcago can give him answers.
   Babylon Restored, the city formerly known as the borough of Manhattan, has possibilities, though. Ruled by the mysterious High Epic Regalia, Babylon Restored is flooded and miserable, but David is sure it's the path that will lead him to what he needs to find. Entering a city oppressed by a High Epic despot is risky, but David's willing to take the gamble. Because killing Steelheart left a hole in David's heart. A hole where his thirst for vengeance once lived. Somehow, he filled that hole with another Epic--Firefight. And now he will go on a quest darker and even more dangerous than the fight against Steelheart to find her, and to get his answers.

Another win for Sanderson . . . he’s simply a brilliant writer. Period.” —Patrick Rothfuss, author of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller The Name of the Wind
 
Action-packed.” —EW.com
 
Compelling. . . . Sanderson uses plot twists that he teases enough for readers to pick up on to distract from the more dramatic reveals he has in store.” —The A.V. Club

    I love almost everything Branson Sanderson writes. Almost, because there are some things I haven't read yet. Firefight is another of his mesmerizing stories that involve strange powers and the people who use them. Whether those powers come from metal ingestion or lights in the sky, the results always make for an enjoyable adventure.
  • FIREFIGHT

    I thought these 2 (STEELHEART and FIREFIGHT) books were good reads. The story is in the future and not a copy of anything I have read before. FIREFIGHT is a slightly better read than STEELHEART, which is not the case I generally find with sequels. Both books are very easy to read and will keep your interest throughout. I would recommend to any 5th Grader to Adult to read. Thumbs up to the author for these innovative stories.

    I Have not finished it yet, but let me say this, he's not terrible at using metaphors, he's terrible at using similes. I'm sorry but thats been kinda bugging me.
