Publisher's Summary
A new team of Reckoners must infiltrate the flying city of Lux to take down the Epic Lifeforce in this audio-exclusive novel from Brandon Sanderson, the best-selling author of the "Stormlight Archive" and "Mistborn" series, and co-author Steven Michael Bohls.
When the great red star Calamity appeared in the sky, some believed the end had come. They were right.
Calamity created the Epics: humans with incredible powers they didn't deserve.
They could have saved mankind. They could have lifted us into harmony and prosperity. Instead they burned. They slaughtered. They conquered. And then they ruled.
Jax has learned all of this the hard way. Orphaned at an early age, he's spent most of his childhood training to be a Reckoner - determined to find the Epics' weaknesses, unlock their secrets, and protect those of us who are still left.
But now, the mysterious High Epic Lifeforce has arrived with his flying city, Lux, to plunder what's left of Texas. So Jax and his ragtag team - the few who remain of the once-mighty Texas Reckoners - must take their battle to this floating fortress of riches - and defeat the invincible.
To avenge what has been lost. And rise anew.

Good fun, if not as disciplined as previous Sanderson novels.
While not quite as tight in its world building as other Sanderson novels, this one is still definitely worth a listen. First time reading Steven Bohls. Will be looking out for his other work.
Some fantastic characters that you’ll love, and some great world mechanics. Absolutely brilliant voice acting.
However some of the mechanics, events, characters etc. seem a little contrived and some of the plot was a bit too convenient.
In many other Sanderson novels, the world mechanics are very clear, and the constraints and synergies make you excited for where sequels will take you. At the end of Lux, I felt like I had very little insight into what could possibly open up which was a little disappointing. Lots of loose ends that I can only assume will come into play in a sequel.
Don’t let that get in the way of a good story though. There are swords, super humans, explosions AND a flying city! Sit back and enjoy.

An entirely different series, in the same universe
The original series is much better. This novel has the same voice actors, and they're voicing different characters which makes it a disjointed experience at best.
