The Stormlight Archive Books in Order
The Stormlight Archive is Brandon Sanderson's epic fantasy series set on Roshar, a storm-ravaged world where massive hurricanes fuel the magic system. The story follows warriors, scholars, and slaves as they rediscover the lost magic of the legendary Knights Radiant while facing an ancient enemy's return.
Known for its incredible worldbuilding, complex magic based on ideals and oaths, and exploration of mental health themes, the series features multiple viewpoint characters including the depressed soldier Kaladin, the secretive scholar Shallan, and the honorable warlord Dalinar. With books regularly exceeding 1,000 pages, it's Sanderson's most ambitious work and a cornerstone of his Cosmere universe.
The series is planned for ten books split into two five-book arcs, with the first arc now complete (The Way of Kings through Wind and Truth). Perfect for readers who love detailed magic systems, morally complex characters, and epic-scale storytelling.
