Firefight es el segundo volumen de la elogiada «Trilogía de los Reckoners» de Brandon Sanderson, el autor de fantasía épica que más lectores está ganado en todo el mundo y que ya se ha convertido en el futuro heredero del trono de todo un género.La presente edición de Firefight incluye el relato «Mitosis», cuya lectura se sitúa entre los libros uno y dos de la trilogía.La ciudad de Chicago Nova es libre.Le dijeron a David que era imposible, que ni siquiera los Reckoners habían sido capaces de matar a un Gran Épico. Sin embargo, Steelheart -invencible, inmortal, inamovible- ha muerto. Y David fue el responsable de su fin. Acabar con Steelheart debería haber completado la vida de David. Pero en realidad, solo le sirvió para ser consciente de todas las preguntas para las que no tiene respuesta. Y en Chicago Nova nadie puede contestarlas.Pese a todo, en Babilonia Restaurada, el lugar antes conocido como Manhattan, quizá pueda encontrar las respuestas. Es unan urbe inundada y triste, gobernada por la Gran Épica Regalia, pero David está seguro de que por allí pasa el camino que le llevará a lo que busca. Es arriesgado entrar en una ciudad bajo el yugo de una despótica Gran Épica, pero para David la apuesta vale la pena. Porque la muerte de Steelheart solo logró dejarle un enorme vacío donde antes residía su sed de venganza: en el corazón. Había logrado llenar ese vacío con Firefight, una Épica desaparecida. Y ahora se embarcará en una empresa más peligrosa y siniestra que la rebelión contra Steelheart.Partirá en busca de Firefight y de las respuestas que necesita.

Now with over 10 million copies sold, The Mistborn Series has the thrills of a heist story, the twistiness of political intrigue, and the epic scale of a landmark fantasy saga.The impossible has been accomplished. The Lord Ruler-the man who claimed to be god incarnate and brutally ruled the world for a thousand years-has been vanquished. But Kelsier, the hero who masterminded that triumph, is dead too, and now the awesome task of building a new world has been left to his young protégé, Vin, the former street urchin who is now the most powerful Mistborn in the land, and to the idealistic young nobleman she loves.As Kelsier's protégé and slayer of the Lord Ruler she is now venerated by a budding new religion, a distinction that makes her intensely uncomfortable. Even more worrying, the mists have begun behaving strangely since the Lord Ruler died, and seem to harbor a strange vaporous entity that haunts her.Stopping assassins may keep Vin's Mistborn skills sharp, but it's the least of her problems. Luthadel, the largest city of the former empire, doesn't run itself, and Vin and the other members of Kelsier's crew, who lead the revolution, must learn a whole new set of practical and political skills to help. It certainly won't get easier with three armies-one of them composed of ferocious giants-now vying to conquer the city, and no sign of the Lord Ruler's hidden cache of atium, the rarest and most powerful allomantic metal.As the siege of Luthadel tightens, an ancient legend seems to offer a glimmer of hope. But even if it really exists, no one knows where to find the Well of Ascension or what manner of power it bestows.

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.Praise for the Reckoners Series:#1 New York Times Bestselling Series ';Another win for Sanderson . . . he's simply a brilliant writer.
