 Vin is living a life of pure survival. She gets by helping people steal and trying not to get beaten too bad. When she uses her talents on the wrong person and is discovered her life is forever changed. Vin learns that there are people out there that want more than mere survival, they want to live.

Vin joins up with Kelsier and his team to try and overthrow the lord ruler. Vin does not believe this will ever happen, but she wants to do something. As Kelsier teaches her to use her powers it becomes clear that she is special.

This is a great book. Found family, striving not just surviving, everything you want from a fantasy.
