THE FIRST STORY COLLECTION by NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR BRANDON SANDERSON Brandon Sanderson Creates Worlds, and Those Worlds Are Linked THE FIRST STORY COLLECTION BY NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR BRANDON SANDERSON Brandon Sanderson creates worlds, and those worlds are linked. His universe spans the Stormlight Archive, the Mistborn series, the tales of Elantris, and others, comprising a unique constellation of vividly imagined realms known as the Cosmere. Now for the first time anywhere, stories representing each of these planets, and their fully realized and distinct magic systems, have been collected in a single spectacular volume. Arcanum Unbounded: The Cosmere Collection brings together tales spanning the known limits of Sanderson’s universe—including the never-before-published Edgedancer, a thrilling new novella of the Stormlight Archive—along with charts, illustrations, notes . and secrets. The Cosmere Collection encompasses six worlds in all, explored across nine astonishing works of short fiction: Sel (“The Hope of Elantris” and The Emperor’s Soul); Scadrial (“The Eleventh Metal,” “Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania, Episodes Twenty-eight Through Thirty,” and Mistborn: Secret History); Taldain (“White Sand”); Threnody (“Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell”); First of the Sun (“Sixth of the Dusk”); and Roshar (Edgedancer). These exciting tales will catapult you onto an unprecedented journey across a cosmos only Brandon Sanderson could have envisioned. Arcanum Unbounded: The Cosmere Collection is an indispensible volume no Sanderson fan can do without. BRANDON SANDERSON grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska. He lives in Utah with his wife and children and teaches creative writing at Brigham Young University.

  • Acclaiming the Future
    Name: Anouk van der Zee Student number: 3467449 Format: Bachelor thesis Supervisor: dr. Barnita Bagchi Acclaiming the Future A Critical Analysis of the Contemporary Value of High Fantasy Literature Foreword to this thesis I took the opportunity to write about a genre I feel passionate about for this thesis. As I started to look for secondary literature to support my analyses, what I found was almost completely based on related topics, not much on high fantasy itself. Especially on the subject of the fan- tastic, which is close but ultimately not relevant to my choice of genre. I’ve used one line from Todorov’s The Fantastic—almost the go-to work for literary critics interested in this area—in all, and it was a quote from another text to support the claim that the fantastic differs from the marvellous, on which high fantasy is built. As I started to worry about the sustainability of my own thesis, I realised that this is my topic. Consider everything that has been allowed to wear the tag of literature in the last few decades. Some of these definitely fall into the popular or cult category, yet are given serious considera- tion. Not high fantasy, as if the genre were already dead and buried with no other frontrunner than Tolkien. But when a genre—any genre—is still alive, turning out novels and having pu- blishers especially devoted to it (such as Tor Books), literary criticism cannot assume that no other literary work will be turned out. Therefore, its quiet refusal to pay serious attention to the genre is incomprehensible, even unreasonable, and has created a very dismissive atmos- phere—from the critics down to the mainstream reader public.

Great book and a great introduction to Brandon SandersonBy NinjalestGreat book and a great introduction to Brandon Sanderson. Excellent personal story arcs and a great overall arc and resolution. Perhaps not as polished as his later works, but it is also his first published work.

I am just very happy to let you know that this is the best ebook i actually have read through inside my individual daily life and can be he finest ebook for possibly. (Dayne Johns) DISCLAIMER | DMCA UBVZXFUJHVYT ^ Book > Elantris ELANTRIS St Martin's Press. Paperback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, Elantris, Brandon Sanderson, Elantris was the capital of Arelon: gigantic, beautiful, literally radiant, filled with benevolent beings who used their powerful magical abilities for the benefit of all. Yet each of these demigods was once an ordinary person until touched by the mysterious transforming power of the Shaod. Ten years ago, without warning, the magic failed. Elantrians became wizened, leper-like, powerless creatures, and Elantris itself dark, filthy, and crumbling.Arelon's new capital, Kae, crouches in the shadow of Elantris. Princess Sarene of Teod arrives for a marriage of state with Crown Prince Raoden, hoping -- based on their correspondence -- to also find love. She finds instead that Raoden has died and she is considered his widow. Both Teod and Arelon are under threat as the last remaining holdouts against the imperial ambitions of the ruthless religious fanatics of Fjordell. So Sarene decides to use her new status to counter the machinations of Hrathen, a Fjordell high priest who has come to Kae to convert Arelon and claim it for his emperor and his god. But neither Sarene nor Hrathen suspect the truth about Prince Raoden.

  • The Emperor's Soul
    Praise for The Emperor’s Soul “The forgery was a masterpiece, an almost perfect replica of a priceless work of art. The minor inconsistencies were all but impossible for even an expert to detect. However, Shai had been betrayed. Now awaiting execution, Shai would be reprieved if she could do the impossible. As a Forger, Shai is a skillful artist who can apply complex magical glyphs to rewrite the history of the item to change it completely. Although Forgers are despised, the Empire needs Shai to accomplish the unthinkable: to Forge a new soul for the Emperor. Verdict: Sanderson, the best-selling author of the “Mistborn Trilogy” and The Way of Kings, has set this novella in the same world as Elantris, one of his earlier novels, but it is totally independent. Fantasy fans will love both the compelling story and the creative magical setting.” —Library Journal “Sanderson proves to be an exceptionally talented writer in the pages of this book.... The Emperor’s Soul is one of those rare high fantasies that feels fresh and is filled with a sense of wonder.” —Charles de Lint, Fantasy & Science Fiction “The Emperor’s Soul is a worthy addition to Sanderson’s biblio- graphy: a new magic system with some interesting implications, a couple of fascinating characters, a focused plot, and a subtle link to the much larger picture he’s been painting for years.” —Tor.com “With a fascinating study of clashing beliefs, another inven- tive magic system, and highly entertaining action sequence, The Emperor’s Soul is the book I would recommend to anyone who wants to find out for the first time what Sanderson is all about.” —Fantasy Book Review Praise for Brandon Sanderson “Sanderson will be forever mentioned as one of the finest fantasy writers of this generation.” —Fantasy Faction “Sanderson is expert at spinning fantasy stories packed with memorable characters, crisply detailed settings, unique magic, and major helpings of intrigue.” —Black Gate “Sanderson is a deft manipulator of fantasy tropes.” —Sci Fi Wire Praise for Mistborn “Mistborn utilizes a well thought-out system of magic.
