Where Can I Read Mistborn Online For Free Legally?

I'd love to dive into The Final Empire's magic system. Any legal free ebook sources or public library apps where the first book is available, before I commit to buying the rest?

The first era of Mistborn is available for free on Brandon Sanderson’s website, but if you’re looking for something a bit different then I really enjoyed the werewolf politics in ‘The Obsidian Covenant #1: The Rejected Mate’s Ruin’. It follows a single protagonist struggling to survive in a hierarchy dominated by Others after being cast out by his pack. His journey to try and bring about change has just the right mix of personal struggle and changing a system. It’s available on several of the major web novel apps and has a free daily chapter unlock.

For those new to ‘Mistborn’ I always recommend looking into legal ways to read the books. Right now Scribd is offering a free 30 day trial where you might be able to download ‘Mistborn’ for free. There are also many libraries that have partnered with Hoopla which offers e-books, including ‘Mistborn’ for free with your library card. I also periodically post free short stories and other content including excerpts from my books on this website. I encourage you to check back often for new material. Note that piracy hurts creators so I encourage everyone to read ‘Mistborn’ legally.

There are also free e-book copies of ‘Mistborn’ floating around the internet, but I would advise people to search out legal copies of the book, such as borrowing from a library, which will have digital versions available to read on phones and tablets. And Sanderson does put up free chapters and other behind-the-scenes information on his website, but be aware that this is not the full length of the book and is meant to be a free taste for fans of the author and series.

You can gain free legal access to Mistborn by downloading it through services such as Libby or OverDrive with a library card. Some universities have added their university’s digital library to their offerings. Brandon Sanderson occasionally gives away free stuff in his newsletter, so you might want to sign up for that as well. It’s worth waiting for a good story and taking the time to seek out free stuff in a resourceful and patient way.

I would love to read more of the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson. Alas, most of the full books in the series are not available to read for free online legally. But there are a couple of exceptions. First, you can read sample chapters from various books in the series on Tor’s website as well as on Brandon Sanderson’s official website. This will give you a good idea of the magic, action, and main character Vin in the various books in the series.

Another great way to read “Mistborn” for free is to check out your local library. Most libraries offer e-books through apps like Libby or OverDrive that you can borrow for free with just a library card. Some services like Audible also offer free trials during which you can download “Mistborn” as an audiobook. As always, supporting the author by purchasing the book is the best way to ensure there will be more great stories like this in the future.

Of course, there’s a lot of fun in comparing book to show. But unlike the very faithful first season of television, there are large and soon increasing deviations from the original text as the season goes on. To do this sort of comparison, you’d really need to read the whole, unedited text – something that a free sample would not be able to give you past the introductory setup. The free sample is like the pilot episode of a show. If you like the pilot, you can then subscribe to the channel to watch the rest of the episodes. There is no way to stream an entire TV show for free on its official network (unless you have a subscription). Bookstores work in much the same way as TV networks – the free sample is your free trial, and then you go to the library or buy the book as a subscriber.

How many pages are in the first Mistborn book?

11 Answers2025-07-14
As a longtime fantasy reader, I've delved deep into Brandon Sanderson's works, and 'Mistborn: The Final Empire' is one of my favorites. The first book in the Mistborn trilogy has a page count that varies by edition. The US hardcover edition clocks in at 541 pages, while the paperback version is around 647 pages due to different formatting and font sizes. International editions might differ slightly, but generally, it’s a substantial read packed with intricate world-building and thrilling heist elements. For ebook readers, the page count can fluctuate based on device settings, but it typically aligns with the paperback length. If you’re a fan of epic fantasy with detailed magic systems and compelling characters, this book is a must-read. The sheer depth of storytelling makes every page worth it, whether you’re flipping through a physical copy or scrolling on a screen.

I think most people overcomplicate this. If someone wants to post their own work online for everyone to view for free on their public social media accounts then that’s perfectly legal and fine by me. Sometimes searching for circle names or certain tags on Pixiv or Twitter will even pull up the complete work. The legality depends on the artist and their consent for public display, not on the platform through which it’s displayed (e.g. corporate sites). Following artists is not like finding books in a store, though. It’s not organized that way.

If you like Sanderson's work, some other good choices for authors are Brent Weeks, Brian McClellan, and Will Wight. Also Charlie Holmberg, if your tastes are slightly more feminine.

Can I find City of Bones book free online legally?

I had a tough time finding City of Bones to read for free legally. But it is out there. There is a Twitter thread about it that lists out a number of ways to find free copies. Apparently in some countries you can find older editions of books in public domain on websites such as Google Books. The author Cassandra Clare occasionally posts up free chapters of her upcoming books on her website during the anniversary of the release of the previous book. She even puts up free short stories from time to time if you sign up for her newsletter. Audiobooks like Audible often offer the first book in a series for free to draw in new listeners. That’s how I read the first book in the Six of Crows series for free. Be sure to cancel your trial after a while if you don’t intend to continue, though. And buying a used copy of a book and saving up for it is way more satisfying than risking your computer to malware on some scam site to read a free copy of City of Bones.

Where can I read Dork Diaries online for free legally?

I set up my various library cards with links to Libby, Hoopla, and CloudLibrary, and then do a title search on all of them. Usually one of them has a short wait time or has it available to borrow right away. For the 'Dork Diaries' series that I read, Hoopla was the best source for me to borrow them from (of course that may vary based on your library and how they subscribe to each of these services). CloudLibrary is less common than the other two but is another option to check out. It takes a little bit of setup on the front end but then it is a very powerful and free reading network for almost any popular book.

Who narrates the audiobook versions of Mistborn books?

10 Answers2025-06-06
Michael Kramer does an excellent job of establishing the scope of the old world of Terris prior to the era shift, and then Kate Reading picks up the story to offer a fresh perspective on the more modern, civic-minded characters of the new world of Elendel. Kramer’s iconic Kelsier is charming and intense and Crack-like in his subtle breakage. Reading is brilliant with the more modern characters, and brings a lot of depth to the portrayal of Marasi’s growth from naive young keeper’s assistant to confident constable. Kramer and Reading together present a rich, full and stunningly well realized audio version of the later Mistborn novels.

Honestly, buying the books or borrowing them from a library is much easier and less of a hassle than searching for free online versions of the books. The author worked hard to create that world in those books and should receive proper respect for his work. This is work that George R.R. Martin has invested decades of his life in, and somehow reading it off some dodgy ad-riddled blogspot page is perceived to be cheaper than buying it. You can usually borrow eBooks for free from libraries, or, as a student, sometimes even through your university’s library. And yes, you can even buy them second hand for a few bucks at used book stores. Save up for them, have them gifted to you, or get them from the library. This series is a masterpiece, treat it with the respect it deserves.

Where to read free romance adults books online legally?

Within the romance novels field I currently specialize in translated novels originally published in other languages (Korean webnovels, Japanese light novels, Chinese danmei novels). Getting hold of a free legal copy of such a novel is not as easy as it is with English language novels. Most webnovels are serialized, and even completed ones are rarely translated and made available for free, especially when they are official translations. (Exceptions are made when there is an anime adaptation for example.) Once more, your best bet for accessing free translated romance would be your local library, as some systems have started adding titles from platforms such as OverDrive’s Global Chinese collection, or even partner with comic and app services that offer translated webnovels. Demand for translated novels is up in recent years, but as of now there is still not as much access as there is to English-language romance novels. Free samples of novels from official aggregator sites for translated novels are typically how you can look at free samples of a specific sub-genre before you buy it.
