The Final Empire

Book • 2001
In the world of the Final Empire, the Lord Ruler has ruled with absolute power for a thousand years, maintaining control through a strict social hierarchy and powerful magical beings known as Inquisitors.

The story centers around Kelsier, a half-Skaa thief who discovers he is a Mistborn, capable of using allomancy to gain enhanced senses and control over supernatural forces.

Kelsier leads a group of rebels in a plan to overthrow the Final Empire by destabilizing its economy and sparking a war among the nobility.

Despite setbacks and losses, Kelsier's ultimate goal is to create a symbol of hope for the oppressed Skaa people.
