To end the Final Empire and restore freedom, Vin killed the Lord Ruler. But as a result, the Deepness--the lethal form of the ubiquitous mists--is back, along with increasingly heavy ashfalls and ever more powerful earthquakes. Humanity appears to be doomed unless Emperor Elend Venture can find clues left behind by the Lord Ruler that will allow him to save the world.

One of the best trilogy I have ever read. These three books were amazing, well built and always surprised me in so many ways. It is difficult to build a world but it tends to be even more difficult to properly finish a story. I was not disappointed. I'll def read more of the cosmere.
