Words of Radiance
Words of Radiance continues the Stormlight Archive, focusing on Kaladin battling depression while commanding royal guards, Shallan uncovering dark secrets & her past to find Urithiru, and Dalinar wrestling with unifying Alethkar amidst visions of impending doom as the Parshendi summon a deadly Everstorm, ultimately leading to the revival of the Knights Radiant and a dangerous escalation of the war for Roshar.
