Synopses

The Way of Kings

Myth speaks of the Tranquiline Halls and the Voidbringers’ assault that drove humanity to Roshar. Legends tell of Shardblades, powerful armour and the Radiants, led by angelic Heralds, who helped mankind survive repeated attacks. In the present, Shardblades remain as prized relics, and a world long at war is driven by rulers seeking to claim them and unite humanity under one throne.

Words of Radiance

The search for Shard artifacts intensifies on a planet battered by apocalyptic storms. As aristocratic families manoeuvre for control of Shardblades and Shardplate, ancient remnants of a past civilisation, the world edges further towards war. Characters are pulled into new dangers that threaten both their integrity and their lives.

Oathbringer

Humanity faces a new Desolation with the return of the Voidbringers. Dalinar Kholin’s Alethi armies win a brief victory at a terrible cost when the Parshendi summon the Everstorm, whose devastation sweeps the world. As parshmen awaken to the reality of their long enslavement, Kaladin Stormblessed confronts the possibility that their anger may be justified.

Rhythm of War

After forming a coalition of human resistance, Dalinar Kholin and the Knights Radiant endure a year of brutal, drawn-out war with no clear advantage. The threat of betrayal by Taravangian shadows every decision. As Navani Kholin’s scholars make new technological discoveries, the enemy prepares a dangerous operation and an arms race begins that challenges Radiant ideals and may expose secrets of an ancient tower.

Wind and Truth

Dalinar Kholin challenges Odium to a contest of champions, with Roshar’s future at stake, and the Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare. Taravangian’s ascension to take Odium’s place throws plans into disarray as fighting continues worldwide, including in Azimir, the Shattered Plains and Thaylen City. Szeth returns to Shinovar to cleanse his homeland from the influence of the Unmade, accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new struggle helping Szeth and confronting the condition of Ishar, a Herald of the Almighty.
