When his young brother is drafted into the army, Kaladin also goes to protect him.

This first book focuses on Kaladin, a young man whose the father of a surgeon in a small town. Minor Characters: Elokhar (Current king, son of Gavilar and Navani, nephew to Dalinar), Lift, Wit (not quite as he seems), Navani (Gavilar’s wife) and Szeth (The Assassin in White), Eshonai (a Parshendi warrior) The Way of Kings: Book One Main Characters: Kaladin, Dalinar, Shallan, Adolin (Dalinar’s son) and Jasnah (Daughter of Gavilar and Navani, niece to Dalinar)

Shallan, drawn by Michael Whelan Stormfather, a main character in the series Szeth “The Assassin in White” (left) and Kaladin (right). Here are some art work examples in the story (nothing spoilery): Sanderson is very good at showing you what’s important, but guiding you if you don’t remember something. A couple minor characters do make more than one appearance as the series goes on, but if you don’t always remember the interludes. These interludes follow minor characters and just mainly show you what’s happening in another part of the world (Roshar). But you also have interludes before the beginning of the next section of the story. Story Structure: So these books have the main story that you follow (part one, part two, etc.) with artwork in between. But I hope this series review can show you guys what this series is about, some art work and hopefully you will read this amazing series too 🙂 They also take me about a month to listen to, since I am busy and don’t have a lot of audio time. I listen to the audio book for all of these volumes because it’s easier to get the story done I just don’t like towing those big books around all the time. While they are large, it is easy to follow. Sanderson follows in the footsteps of authors like Robert Jordan with creating a vast and large world that’s detailed and cool.

This huge series has been around for a few years now and while it takes at least 3 years for each volume to come out, it’s completely worth it. We follow a few characters as they discover their powers, learn their past as well as see the vast world as this looming threat comes. But there is something called the Everstorm that’s coming and there are people who want the lost Knights Radiant to be founded again. So for the last seven years, the nobility of the humans have been fighting the Parshendi on the Shattered Plains. Overall Plot: Seven years ago, King Gavilar was killed and the Parshendi people took responsibility for it.
