From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, this installment of the Stormlight Archive continues the immersive fantasy epic that began with The Way of Kings. Kaladin, once expected to die as a military slave, now commands the royal bodyguards, a groundbreaking role for a low-status "darkeyes." He must protect the king and Dalinar from common dangers and the extraordinary threat of the Assassin, Szeth, who is on a killing spree against rulers across Roshar, using his mysterious powers to evade capture. Highprince Dalinar, a key figure in the war, becomes a primary target, but the Assassin's motives run deeper than mere political gain. Meanwhile, Shallan, brilliant yet troubled, seeks to prevent the return of the Voidbringers and the ensuing Desolation. Her journey to uncover vital secrets at the Shattered Plains proves fraught with challenges. Concurrently, the Parshendi, facing relentless Alethi attacks and dwindling numbers, are led by Eshonai to make a perilous decision involving supernatural forces they once feared. The stakes for both Parshendi and humans, as well as the fate of Roshar, are immeasurable.
