The Gollancz Emporium exclusive edition of Rhythm of War by fantasy superstar Brandon Sanderson. Available in a single volume and featuring an array of special finishes, this is the premium way to enter one of the most imaginative fantasy worlds ever conceived.

Rhythm of War, Book Four of the Stormlight Archive, continues the epic saga that started with The Way of Kings. Set in an incredible high fantasy world, the magic, history and scope of imagination will take your breath away.

After forming a coalition to resist the enemy invasion, Dalinar Kholin and his Knights Radiant have spent a year fighting a protracted, brutal war. Neither side has gained an advantage, and the threat of a betrayal by Dalinar’s crafty ally Taravangian looms over every strategic move.

Now, as new technological discoveries begin to change the face of the war, the enemy begins a bold and dangerous arms race that will challenge the very core of the Radiant ideals.

At the same time that Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with his changing role within the Knights Radiant, his Windrunners face their own problem: as more and more deadly enemy Fused awaken to wage war, no more honorspren are willing to bond with humans to increase the number of Radiants. Adolin and Shallan must lead the coalition’s envoy to the honorspren stronghold of Lasting Integrity and either convince the spren to join the cause against the evil god Odium, or personally face the storm of failure.
