Yes, Yes, Yes! Everything I had personally hoped-- and more!
By Art W.
Yesterday, when "Calamity" arrived in the mail I promised myself that I would be in control and only read it after I finished my work and school assignments however as soon as I picked it up to "read just a few pages" I knew that I had made a fickle promise that couldn't be kept.
Not only did this book meet my expectations, but very much surpassed them in nearly every way. If you've read the first two books in the "Reckoners" series you are probably already a fan. . . if you haven't yet. . .stop reading this review immediately and head to the nearest local library or make an investment and buy the whole trilogy on Amazon.
Not everyone likes superhero/antihero books. . . but this isn't just one of those. Brandon's Sanderson's books are about as far from cookie-cutter stories as you can get and "Calamity" really has a little something for everyone. Action, spy skills, drama, romance, and a compelling story-line.
This, the final book in the trilogy, brings back all of our favorite characters from the first two books, and introduces a few new ones as well. Although we see some of the comedic humor an banter that we saw in the first two books, the tone is fairly dark as David, Megan, Cody and Abraham work to save a good person from the madness he's experiencing and the atrocities that he's committing while under the influence of Calamity.
I'll freely admit that I am not the best at sleuthing out surprises and twists before they happen, but I honestly was taken for a wild ride as I was caught off guard time and time again by the intricate twists that Brandon Sanderson wove into the story.
As you read the final pages I can almost guarantee that you'll get a chill go up your spine, and shed a silent tear as you find both perfect (almost) fulfillment in the ending of a fantastic series and a deep sadness in the realization that something great has finally come to its end.
My only real complaint with this book is that there are possibilities and side-stories that are entertained (and I really wanted to see explored) that he never really gets into (I'm not going to tell you where but if you watch for them you will find them). I felt like it was kind of like teasing a baby with a sweet that they can see (and really want) but can't have. However, I would encourage you to not focus on those failings because you'll enjoy the story more if you just let it carry you along. That said, I was still more than satisfied by this ending than with 99% of the other endings that I've read.
Liking the ending as much as I did was probably in part due to my personal hopes as to what would happen. I realize that everyone who reads this has slightly different expectations, and has their own hopes and desires. In writing this review I am not guaranteeing/certifying that you will love it, but rather telling you that I did and that I truly think that Brandon Sanderson did a great job of wrapping up a compelling series.
I've read a lot of books (1000+) and I can honestly say that there are very few series/books that I would recommend more highly then this one. . . especially after absolutely loving "Calamity" as much as I did. In summary: great book, awesome story, fantastic surprises-- loved it and would highly recommend!

Great book with lukewarm conclusion
By Julie
If you've read the first two Reckoners books you're going to read this one anyway, and you won't regret it. As a whole the trilogy is great, and the first 75% of this book is great. Even though it's marketed as YA I thoroughly enjoy it as an adult; it's "lighter" than Brandon's other fantasy, but still written intelligently with an engaging, generally well-paced plot and action and fantastic world building.
Unfortunately the end of this book (which is also the end of the trilogy) felt rushed (not pacing-wise, but development-wise) and failed to answer several fundamental questions about Calamity and the Epics. This is a standalone trilogy not set in Brandon's Cosmere, so I expected the end to be wrapped up neatly. Instead you're left with a mostly satisfying plot resolution, but an entire list of questions that are never actually answered. I enjoyed the book but was disappointed by the ending, it could have used a few more chapters to fully develop the conclusion and answer the questions.

3.14159265359 I have no idea how to rate this, so Pi it is Stars
By Robin Snyder
*********Possible Spoilers for Steelheart and Firefight***************
I think this is the first Brandon Sanderson book that when I was done I just wasn’t sure what or even how to rate it. “I feel, like a barrel of green ducks at a Fourth of July parade.”
Why you ask am I having so much trouble deciding? Well I’ll tell you….it wasn’t like the ending in The Hero Of Ages the only other completed trilogy by him that I have to compare it too.
But, you’re probably thinking that isn’t fair, this is a completely different trilogy. And I agree with you there. This is a completely different and new trilogy and it is good that he hasn’t fallen into predictable patterns. But I expected more answers, more closure and maybe a more defined ending. For specifically David’s story there are most of those things but for some of the other aspects I ended up having even more questions than I started with. Especially regarding Calamity the history of his coming, the purpose, why (view spoiler) I WANTED TO KNOW ALL THE THINGS and I still don’t.
I really loved about 85% of this book. It was everything I expected from the Reckoners series. There was a lot of action, bad metaphors and similes, funny characters, emotional moments, a moving city and bad kissing….
***“Yet—in all of infinity—I don’t think I’ve ever found a dimension where you can kiss worth a hill of beans.”
“That’s unfair,” I said. “You didn’t complain last night.”
“You stuck your tongue in my ear, David.”
“That’s way romantic. Saw it in a movie once. It’s like…a passionate wet willie.”***
I was really happy that the original crew was back together for the most part. I really missed Cody and Abraham in Firelight, but add those two and Mizzy all together and it was hilarious. Sure they are trying to save the world and being hunted by Prof but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t funny times galore throughout the entire book.
Cody and his plethora of stories, most of which we all know are totally untrue
***“Coming up with plans has never been my strong point.”
“Why not? Seems like you’re pretty good at making things up.”
He pointed at me. “I’ve punched men for wisecracks like that.” He paused. “Of course, most were Scots.”
“Your own kind?” I asked. “Why would you fight other Scots?”
“Lad, you don’t know much about us, do you?”
“Only what you’ve told me.”
“Well, I guess you know a heap of things then. Just none of them useful.”***
Mizzy and her exuberance mixed with some snark and sarcasm sometimes.
***"Who would have thought that love and hate would be so similar, you know?”
“Who?” Mizzy said. “Like, basically every philosopher to ever live.”
“What, really?”
“Yeaaah. Bunch of rock songs too.”
“Wow.”
“You know, the fact that you were educated in a gun factory kinda shows sometimes, David.”***
Abraham with his mysterious past….That is one of those things I really wanted a little more info on. And then there is David and Megan to round out the crew with David in a new position of leadership. It looks good on him and I like the new relationship dynamic between Megan and David, they totally work well together and finish each other’s metaphors. They also get just a few tender moments that made me feel all warm and squishy inside.
***“I’m glad you’re not the same Megan. I don’t want you to be the same. My Megan is a sunrise, always changing, but beautiful the entire time.”
She teared up. “That…” She breathed in. “Wow. Aren’t you supposed to be bad at this?”
“Well, you know what they say,” I told her, grinning. “Even a clock that runs fast is still right twice a day.”
“Actually…You know what, never mind. Thank you.”***
There is the addition of one reluctant team member that I was pretty excited for and that is Nighthawk….because the guy that makes all those gadgets the Reckoners have been using has a pretty interesting story and I did like his addition into the story. He added some history with Prof, a great personal history and some very cool and wonderful new toys to play with.
There is a ton of action throughout and some very cool ideas including a new city. Really worldbuiling is something that Sanderson is masterful at and I’m never disappointed with the new ideas that he comes up with. A city that moves for instance….but it doesn’t fly if that is what you are thinking and the way it moves is brilliant and original in itself. BRAVO on that for sure.
Also Megan and what she is really capable of was another thing that completely WOWed me in this and it was incredibly cool. She has one of the absolutely coolest powers imaginable and I was so glad that we got to explore that in this. I wonder what she will become capable of doing over time. Like could she perhaps put an entire person in another reality permanently??? Because there is one person I would like to give a chance in that other reality.
Now to why I’m so Torn. As I mention about lack of closure on a few story points that I thought were pretty important. I didn’t leave this feeling like everything in this world was done. I was left feeling like there are more stories to be told here. While David’s story is definitely done Sanderson has said that he may revisit this world down the road but it will be awhile because he has a lot of other writing plans at the moment.
I loved the Fringe factor of the various realities via Megan but I’m going to say that I really didn’t enjoy the Calamity of it all. As a character/villain he wasn’t as fleshed out as some of the others that I’ve seen in Sanderson’s work and that is why I was disappointed. He was a whiney spoiled scared child who lashed out at others and watched the destruction. I wanted to know so much more about his motivations and all the questions I asked in the above section spoiler. I’m not entirely sure what I expected but he definitely wasn’t it and while a good twist overall I think I might have actually hated it. *Ducks for cover against flying tomotos*
TO END ON A HIGH NOTE - I adored the epilogue and I’m going to say I was really surprised by what we found in the alternate reality. I didn’t see that coming for a second and MY JAW DROPPED TO THE GROUND….I might have even gotten a bit teary eyed although I swore to those around me it was just allergies. It was a perfect and wonderful way to end David’s story.
Audio Note: MacLeod Andrews does a perfect performance of this and made David especially come to life but was also great with the entire cast of characters.
