If the clockwork precision of Allomancy and Feruchemy hooked you—Wax steelpushing off bullets, Wayne’s bendalloy speed bubbles, and the way Miles Hundredlives exploits compounding—then you’ll love how Foundryside’s “scrivings” rewrite reality with strict, hackable logic. Like Wax and Wayne dismantling the Vanishers’ scheme step by step, Sancia and allies use rule-bending magical engineering to pull off audacious break-ins, outthinking wards and traps in ways that echo the tactical set pieces you enjoyed in The Alloy of Law.

If you liked Wax and Wayne piecing through the Vanishers’ abductions with Marasi’s sharp, forensic-minded assists, you’ll click with Rivers of London. Probationary constable Peter Grant is recruited by the enigmatic Nightingale to investigate supernatural crimes across London, following clues, interviewing uncanny witnesses, and building cases that escalate from puzzling incidents to city-shaking conspiracies—much like how The Alloy of Law threads its kidnappings, robberies, and House intrigue into a satisfying magical whodunit.

If Wayne’s irreverent quips bouncing off Wax’s straight-laced lawman energy made you grin amid shootouts and chases, Guards! Guards! gives you that comedic snap in spades. Captain Vimes, earnest Carrot, and the ragtag City Watch blunder, bicker, and brilliantly persevere while probing a plot to unleash a dragon on Ankh-Morpork—delivering the same laugh-out-loud dialogue-to-action ratio that made Wax and Wayne’s stakeouts and standoffs so fun.

If Elendel’s railways, aluminum munitions, and gunslinging Allomancy scratched that industrial-age fantasy itch—think Wax trading fire with riflemen atop train cars—The Aeronaut’s Windlass soars with airship broadsides, etheric weapons, and daring sorties. Captain Grimm and crew wage sky duels and tactical raids with the same pulpy, gear-and-gun energy, channeling the kinetic, tech-tinged set pieces you enjoyed in The Alloy of Law.

If Wax’s principled steel and Wayne’s mischievous improvisation—two opposites whose bond carries them through the Vanishers case and the face-off with Miles—won you over, you’ll relish Locke and Jean. In The Lies of Locke Lamora, a silver-tongued con artist and his steadfast, axe-wielding confidant tackle audacious scams amid Camorr’s shark-infested politics, testing their loyalty through betrayals and gambits that echo the ride-or-die chemistry at the heart of The Alloy of Law.
