Brandon Sanderson
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Its terrifying and frequent tempests have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells and trees pull in branches. Cities are built only where the land offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the ten consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armour that transform ordinary men into near invincible warriors. Men traded kingdoms for Shardblades. Wars were fought for them, and won by them. One such war is about to sweep up a soldier, a brightlord, and a young woman scholar.
