Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his wills. Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners.

From Brandon Sanderson - the number-one New York Times best-selling author of Words of Radiance, co-author of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series and creator of the internationally best-selling Mistborn Trilogy - comes Mitosis, a short story set in the action-packed world of "Steelheart: the Reckoners" series. Epics still plague Newcago, but David and the Reckoners have vowed to fight back. Catch all the action before Firefight, the exciting sequel to Steelheart, comes to audio.

Diez años atrás, Calamity irrumpió en la ciudad en la forma de una explosión en el cielo que otorgó a algunos seres poderes extraordinarios. A estos se los empezó a llamar Épicos, y pronto subyugaron a la población empleando sus increíbles poderes con el afán de gobernar la voluntad de los hombres y conquistar el mundo.

They told David it was impossible - that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet, Steelheart - invincible, immortal, unconquerable - is dead. And he died by David's hand. Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life more simple. Instead, it only made David realise he has questions. Big ones. And there's no one in Newcago who can give him the answers he needs. Babylon Restored, the old borough of Manhattan, has possibilities, though.

Selbst der stärkste Gegner ist verwundbar - du musst nur wissen, wo... Als David sechs ist, zerstört eine gewaltige Explosion die Welt, die er kannte. Einige der Überlebenden erlangen Superkräfte, die sie dazu nutzen, sich die übrigen untertan zu machen. Als David acht ist, muss er miterleben, wie einer dieser Superhelden, ein gewisser Steelheart, seinen Vater ermordet. Von da an kennt David nur ein Ziel: herauszufinden, warum sein Vater sterben musste. Und ihn zu rächen.
