Calamity

by Brandon Sanderson

Book 3 of the The Reckoners series

The Reckoners' victories have destabilized Epic rule, but Prof's transformation forces David to pursue the mentor who taught him how to fight superhumans. Understanding Calamity may reveal why powers corrupt their users and whether that corruption can be reversed. David, Megan, and their allies cross fractured territory while confronting enemies whose weaknesses are tied to fear as much as physics. Energetic and hopeful, this trilogy finale suits readers who enjoy redemption quests, inventive superpowers, team loyalty, and conclusions willing to challenge the premise on which the rebellion was built.
