Description
THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON BEHIND THE COSMERE
In Words of Radiance, Brandon Sanderson transports readers back to the storm-swept world of Roshar, where apocalyptic tempests shape the landscape and destinies of its inhabitants. As the second book in The Stormlight Archive series, it continues the epic saga of survival, betrayal, and heroism.
Kaladin, once a slave, now commands the royal bodyguards, protecting the life of Dalinar Kholin, a highprince who dreams of unifying and saving their war-ravaged world. But his newfound powers and honours come with severe responsibilities and darker challenges. Meanwhile, Shallan Davar, a brilliant scholar with a complicated past, ventures into the Shattered Plains to prevent the return of apocalyptic times, uncovering secrets that will reshape her understanding of the world and herself.
As the race to find Shard artifacts—legendary weapons and armours that can turn the tide of war—intensifies, factions vie for supremacy. Aristocratic houses, ancient orders, and malevolent forces all move their pieces in a deadly game where the stakes are nothing less than the future of civilisation. The quest for power through these ancient relics of the past threatens to plunge Roshar into chaos.
