ATTENTION SPOILERS: This post contains basic information about the context, world and characters of Wind and Truth, the new book by Brandon Sanderson.
Every fan of the Cosmere has a date marked in red on the calendar, because on December 9th Brandon Sanderson’s next book will be released in Spanish bookstores. The American author will close his The Stormlight Archive with Wind and Truth, the fifth chapter of his fantasy saga.
This will only be the first half of the arc that we have lived with King’s road, Radiant Words, Sworn y The Rhythm of WarIf you are one of those who is eager to know the fate of the characters, you already have a good morsel to put in your mouth. And the Gilgamesh store has published the synopsis of the work and you can read it right here below:
Dalinar Kholin has challenged the evil god Odium to a duel of champions that will decide the future of Roshar. The Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare—and the sudden ascension of the cunning and ruthless Taravangian to Odium’s position has thrown everything into turmoil.
The desperate struggle rages simultaneously across the world: Adolin on Azimir, Sigzil and Venli on the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah in Thaylen City. Former assassin Seth must purge his homeland of Shinovar from the dark influence of the Unmade. He is joined by Kaladin, who faces a new battle by helping Seth battle his own demons… and he will have to do the same with Ishar, the mad Herald of the Almighty.
At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain work to unravel the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram—what role it played in the enslavement of the singerkind and why the ancient Knights Radiant slew their spren. And Dalinar and Navani search for an edge against Odium’s champion that can only be found in the Spirit Realm, where memory and possibility collide in chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.
It seems that there are many curves ahead, the same ones that Gilgamesh will have to overcome with the overwhelming amount of orders it has received. To avoid any kind of problem and make things easier for the organization, it has been decided to give priority to orders for a single unit of Wind and Truth.
The cost is 34.90 euros and contains a Exclusive gift itembut we don’t know exactly what it is about. It is expected that “orders will be processed by Correos between the 9th, 10th and 11th of December”, although you can choose to pick up the novel at the bookstore from 10:30 a.m. on the 9th.
