Description
The Way of Kings, Book One of the Stormlight Archive, by Brandon Sanderson, is set in a world of stone and storms where the landscape is shaped by powerful tempests. The remnants of the Knights Radiant, mystical swords and armor, still hold sway, and their Shardblades and Shardplate are highly prized by men who trade kingdoms for them.
A war rages on the Shattered Plains, where ordinary men are transformed into near-invincible warriors by the power of the Shardblades. Kaladin, a former medical apprentice, struggles to save his men and understand the leaders who consider them expendable. Meanwhile, Brightlord Dalinar Kholin, a man haunted by ancient visions, seeks answers in an ancient text called The Way of Kings.
Across the ocean, an untried young woman named Shallan plans a daring theft, driven by motives that are less than pure. Her research for her eminent scholar and notorious heretic aunt hints at secrets of the Knights Radiant and the true cause of the war, drawing her into a complex web of intrigue and discovery.
