To find the answer, she’ll have to unlock the greatest mystery of all—her own heart.Book One of the Emily Wilde Series

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.For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed.
