Background
Published in Feb 2016, “Calamity: Heroes Will Rise,” is the conclusion to Brandon Sanderson’s Reckoners trilogy. The story follows David Charleston and the Reckoners as they continue their fight against the oppressive Epics, superhumans with extraordinary powers and corrupt intentions. In a desperate bid to bring down the ultimate Epic, Calamity, David grapples with new revelations about the source of the Epics’ powers and the possibility of redemption for those consumed by them.
My Thoughts
This book was a fitting conclusion to the series and was just as good as the rest. Sanderson does a great job of keeping the reader on edge and still manages to give a surprise ending. There are still a number of unanswered questions regarding the Epics and the door is wide open to continue on with the series. However, we are now several years later on and it doesn’t look like there will be much more work on it.
Recommendation
Great book
