Finished Reading The Well of Ascension

Finished reading The Well of Ascension (Mistborn, Book 2)by Brandon Sanderson. The Well of Ascension is book two in the Mistborn trilogy. Elend Venture, the new Lord Ruler of Luthadel, clings to power while Luthadel’s aristocrats and merchants grumble and two enemy armies, one lead by Elend’s father, camp outside the city gates. Fortunately, Elend can rely on help from his unofficial assassin and lover, the young allomancer Vin. Vin’s magical metal burning ability makes her a target. Vin is having trouble adapting to her position as royal consort, especially since the underclass skaa, freed by Elend, look to her as their protector. Meanwhile, the ancient evil known as the Deepness is rising once again.

The Well of Ascension is an entertaining read especially if you want to know what happened after the good guys won. This book was just as good as the first book in the series. I look forward to reading the third book.
