Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson

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. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them.
And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father. For years, like the Reckoners, David's been studying, and planning - and he has something they need. Not an object, but an experience.
He's seen Steelheart bleed. And he wants revenge.
From Goodreads.




Another really good fantasy book from Brandon Sanderson. I liked David who has worked hard the last 10 years to learn all he could about the Epics. Also, the way he had studied to remain an average student in order to avoid being noticed. The Reckoners who fight and kill the Epics are quite interesting and I liked the twists and surprises at the end of the story. I am looking forward to reading the next book.
