Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson
The Bands of Mourning are a set of magical metalworking tools that allow the user to restore and control Allomantic and Feruchemical metals. The Bands were created by the Lord Ruler, who used them to create an army of Steel Inquisitors. After the Lord Ruler’s death, the Bands were lost and their whereabouts remained unknown until they were rediscovered by Waxillium Ladrian.
I recently read Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson and I have to say, I was really impressed! The world-building in this book is just incredible and the characters are so well-developed. I can’t wait to see what happens next in the series!

Is Bands of Mourning the Last Mistborn Book?
Bands of Mourning is not the last Mistborn book. It is, however, the final book in The Wax and Wayne Trilogy. Brandon Sanderson has said that he plans to write more Mistborn books, but those will be set in different eras and will likely focus on different characters.
Did Kelsier Create the Bands of Mourning?
The short answer is that we don’t know for sure. The Bands of Mourning are a set of magical artifacts that allow the wearer to access Allomantic and Feruchemical powers they otherwise would not have. They were created by the Lord Ruler, but it’s possible that Kelsier had a hand in their creation as well.
We do know that Kelsier was an incredibly powerful Allomancer and Feruchemist, and he was also very knowledgeable about the Lord Ruler’s secrets. It’s possible that he was able to create the Bands of Mourning, or at least replicate them. However, there is no concrete evidence either way.
In the end, it doesn’t really matter who created the Bands of Mourning. What matters is that they exist, and they can give people access to incredible power. If you’re lucky enough to find a set, make sure you use them wisely!
