Mistborn: The Final Empire

Generations ago - the bad guy won, now a team is putting on a heist to remove the Lord Ruler. 

Great characters, interesting magic system and fun plot. 

Only reason that it's lost a star is during its engaging and exciting finale (I genuinely couldn't stop reading, I was gripped) there were a few convinces that made it wobble a little for me - but it still stuck the landing. 

This is my first Sanderson, and is not going to be my last.
