So let’s start with the settings of the trilogy. In these series, there’s a world which is ruled by the Final Empire with its capital Luthadel created by a man called “Lord Ruler”(統御主) from a thousand years ago. Since then, the mist come out to the world every night and the ash fall from the sky all the time. People in this world are classified into nobility and skaa(司卡). Of course, there must be some magical power in Brandon’s books. In this trilogy, there are three kinds of powers, Allomancy(鎔金術),Feruchemy(藏金術), and Hemalurgy(血金術). For those who have this ability we call him or her Allomancer(鎔金術師), and Feruchemist for Feruchemy. Allomancy is the most important one among three magical powers, Allomancers who can burn only a kind of metals and get different powers depending on what kind of metals he or she could burn are Mistings(迷霧人), however, there are few of people could burn all kinds of metals we call them Mistborn(迷霧之子). If you want to know the details and different kinds of Allomancers, you can get more information from:

OMG I am so thrilled to see someone introducing him and his FANTASTIC NOVELS.
I first read mistborn when I was in the junior high, and it was a gift from my friend. I immediately fell in love with it, then there were Elantris and the Emperor's Soul.
Oh how I wonder if Mistborn is going to have a film.<3
