Description
Specifications
The long-awaited explosive climax of the first arc of Number One New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive. Dalinar Kholin has challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar at stake. The Radiant Knights have only ten days to prepare - and the sudden rise of the cunning and wild Taravangian to the position of Odium has thrown everything into turmoil.
Desperate battles rage simultaneously across the world - Adolin in Azimir, Sigzil and Venli in the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah in Thaylen City. The former assassin, Szeth, must cleanse his homeland, Shinovar, of the dark influence of the Unmade. Accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new struggle helping Szeth fight his own demons ... and who must do the same for the mad Herald of the Almighty, Ishar.
At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain are working to uncover the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram and its involvement in the enslavement of the singer tribe and the ancient murder of the spren by the Radiant Knights. Dalinar and Navani are seeking an advantage against Odium's champion that can only be found in the Spiritual Realm, where memory and possibility swirl into chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs by a thread.
