      Je m'appelle Alcatraz Smedry, et je viens de vivre des aventures rocambolesques avec mon grand-père. C'est que, voyez-vous, les Smedry ont le don de se mettre dans des situations impossibles. D'un autre côté, ils sont la cible préférée des infâmes bibliothécaires, et les seuls à s'opposer à eux... Cette fois-ci, c'est ma cousine Australie qui est venue me chercher : mon père ne serait pas mort, et il aurait disparu dans la mystérieuse bibliothèque d'Alexandrie. Il paraît qu'elle est infestée de spectres morts-vivants... Ah, j'oubliais : les infâmes bibliothécaires ont aussi envoyé à nos trousses un mercenaire des Ossements du Scribe !

      From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, this installment of the Stormlight Archive continues the immersive fantasy epic that began with The Way of Kings. Kaladin, once expected to die as a military slave, now commands the royal bodyguards, a groundbreaking role for a low-status "darkeyes." He must protect the king and Dalinar from common dangers and the extraordinary threat of the Assassin, Szeth, who is on a killing spree against rulers across Roshar, using his mysterious powers to evade capture. Highprince Dalinar, a key figure in the war, becomes a primary target, but the Assassin's motives run deeper than mere political gain. Meanwhile, Shallan, brilliant yet troubled, seeks to prevent the return of the Voidbringers and the ensuing Desolation. Her journey to uncover vital secrets at the Shattered Plains proves fraught with challenges. Concurrently, the Parshendi, facing relentless Alethi attacks and dwindling numbers, are led by Eshonai to make a perilous decision involving supernatural forces they once feared.

    • According to mythology, humanity once thrived in The Tranquiline Halls, a paradise until the Voidbringers invaded, exiling God and mankind. Forced to settle on Roshar, a storm-ravaged world, humanity faced relentless attacks from the Voidbringers. In response, the Almighty bestowed powerful suits of armor and mystical weapons, known as Shardblades, to aid them. With the guidance of ten Heralds and orders of knights called Radiants, humanity triumphed—or so the legends claim. Now, remnants of those battles linger in the form of Shardblades, which grant near invincibility in combat. The world is embroiled in a centuries-long conflict, fueled by kings vying for Shardblades and the hope of uniting mankind under one throne. Amidst this turmoil, a young spearman is thrust into the army of a Shardbearer, facing an enemy he struggles to comprehend. Questions linger about humanity's past, the Radiants' betrayal, and the fate of their lost magic. Readers rave about the book's incredible quality, describing it as a multi-POV, action-packed narrative filled with heartfelt moments and thrilling excitement. The richly developed world and multidimensional characters captivate audiences, marking the beginning of an epic fantasy masterpiece that elevates storytelling to new heights.
