The Way of Kings

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson (The Stormlight Archive, Book 1) Reread

Blurbos Rating (5)

I’m doing a reread of this series for a few reasons:

  1. The series is long, and I wanted to do a recap before reading Wind and Truth (which comes out December, 2024.
  2. The only highlights I was able to recover from my first read through were from Dawnshard and Rhythm of War. I wasn’t able to recover much from The Way of Kings.
  3. The series is just so damn good.

This series is a masterpiece so far. Definitely the best fantasy series going at the moment. Every book is a 5/5 for me (though I haven’t read Wind and Truth yet).

While every book is quite long, it’s very much worth it. I’d highly recommend giving it a go.

Highlights

But I survived, Kalak thought, hand to breast as he hastened to the meeting place. I actually survived this time. That was dangerous. When he died, he was sent back, no choice.

… a decision has been made. It is time for the Oathpact to end.” Kalak felt a sharp stab of horror. “What will that do?” “Ishar believes that so long as there is one of us still bound to the Oathpact, it may be enough. There is a chance we might end the cycle of Desolations.”

Worse, the Alethi scholars were said to be close to creating new Shardblades. Szeth hoped that was just wishful boasting. For if it did happen, the world would be changed. Likely in a way that ended with people in all countries—from distant Thaylenah to towering Jah Keved—speaking Alethi to their children.

According to legend, the Shardblades were first carried by the Knights Radiant uncounted ages ago. Gifts of their god, granted to allow them to fight horrors of rock and flame, dozens of feet tall, foes whose eyes burned with hatred. The Voidbringers.

“Kaladin, why must you ignore me?” Kaladin started. “What did you say?” She smiled mischievously, then sprang away, her figure blurring into a long white ribbon of blue-white light. She shot between the bars—twisting and warping in the air, like a strip of cloth caught in the wind—and darted beneath the wagon. “Storm you!” Kaladin said, leaping to his feet. “Spirit! What did you say? Repeat that!” Spren didn’t use people’s names.

“A name,” the windspren said, walking through the air to stand beside his face. She was in the shape of a young woman, complete with flowing skirt and delicate feet. “Sylphrena.” “Sylphrena,” Kaladin repeated, tying on the sandals. “Syl,” the spirit said.

With the Alethi army boxing them in on the west and north—and with scouts placed south and east just in case—the Parshendi could not escape. Dalinar had argued that the Parshendi would run out of supplies. They’d either have to expose themselves and try to escape the Plains, or would have to attack the Alethi in their fortified warcamps.

Gaz paled. Then he cursed, holding up the dark sphere. “And a dun sphere at that.” Kaladin frowned. He was sure it had still glowed before the bridge run. “That’s your fault.

Well, in that same section, there’s a passage about the nature of forcing people to follow you as opposed to letting them follow you. We do too much forcing in Alethkar.
