The story begins when wannabe Reckoner David Charleston devises a plan to defeat the Epic that has taken over Chicago, Steelheart. The Reckoners themselves don’t have powers and must rely on street smarts, firearms, and other forms of technology to take the Epics down. The three novels, Steelheart, Firefight, and Calamity, all center around a new city and new Epic for the titular Reckoners to take down. Instead of using their powers for good, these beings have created their own dictatorships in different cities in the United States. The Reckoners trilogy is set in a world where superpowered beings known as Epics have taken over the world. While Sanderson is more known for work in the fantasy genre, The Reckoners’ brand of superheroes is in line with his magically powered heroes seen in Mistborn. "A straight-up Marvel Comics-style action drama.This trilogy is written by Brandon Sanderson, the author of Elantris and the Mistborn trilogy. “An absolute page-turner."” -Publishers Weekly Sanderson uses plot twists that he teases enough for readers to pick up on to distract from the more dramatic reveals he has in store.” -The A.V. leaves panting for the sequel.” -Booklist, Starred “Snappy dialogue, bizarre plot twists, high-intensity action, and a touch of mystery and romance. Period.” - Patrick Rothfuss, author of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller The Name of the Wind And it turns out that the Reckoners might just need David, too. But to exact revenge in this new world, David will need the Reckoners-a shadowy group of rebels bent on maintaining justice. How far would you go for revenge if someone killed your father? If someone destroyed your city? If everything you ever loved was taken from you? David Charleston will go to any lengths to stop the Epics.
