If I could choose one word to describe Mistborn, it's be "fun." You're right Christine, the writing isn't the best, but they are entertaining.

Loved the Mistborn books. I haven't gotten to Alloy of Law yet, however. I wouldn't say the writing is the best, though I quite like Sanderson's storytelling. Then again, who am I to decide good writing? :)
I agree - the first three totally sucked me in.

David, here's a linky to Sanderson's Mistborn page. The magic system is unique in that people ingest metals and then "burn" them to achieve an effect. The books are very gritty and action oriented, but they also have the traditional fantasy themes of "good vs evil" and "small time person saves the world."
I think I read all three books of the original series in a week - they just sucked me right in.

I just finished Brandon Sanderson's "Alloy of Law." Has anybody else read his Mistborn books?
