The Way of Kings introduces Roshar, a world scarred by endless storms and forgotten histories. Legends tell of angelic Radiants and magical Shardblades, but those days have vanished into mystery.
Caught in this turmoil is a young spearman forced into service with a powerful Shardbearer. As he confronts a ruthless enemy he barely understands, he begins to question: what really happened to the legendary Radiants, and can the lost power they wielded be reclaimed? Sanderson’s novel launches an ambitious saga about war, destiny, and the enduring question of humanity’s forgotten past
