Picking up the action about a year later [from The Alloy of Law], Shadows of Self shows us much more about how the Mistborn world and society are evolving as technology and magic mix, the economy grows, democracy contends with corruption, and religion becomes a growing cultural force, with four faiths competing for believers. This bustling, optimistic, but still shaky society now faces its first instance of terrorism, crimes intended to stir up labour strife and religious conflict. Wax and Wayne, assisted by the lovely, brilliant Marasi, must unravel the conspiracy before civil strife stops Scadrial's progress in its tracks.
