Omtale fra forlaget
From the bestselling author who completed Robert Jordan's epic Wheel of Time series comes a new, original creation that matches anything else in modern fantasy for epic scope, thrilling imagination, superb characters and sheer addictiveness.
In Oathbringer, the third volume of the New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive series, humanity faces a new Desolation with the return of the Voidbringers, a foe whose numbers are as great as their thirst for vengeance.
The Alethi armies commanded by Dalinar Kholin won a fleeting victory at a terrible cost: The enemy Parshendi summoned the violent Everstorm, and now its destruction sweeps the world and its passing awakens the once peaceful and subservient parshmen to the true horror of their millennia-long enslavement by humans. While on a desperate flight to warn his family of the threat, Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with the fact that their newly kindled anger may be wholly justified.
Nestled in the mountains high above the storms, in the tower city of Urithiru, Shallan Davar investigates the wonders of the ancient stronghold of the Knights Radiant and unearths the dark secrets lurking in its depths. And Dalinar realizes that his holy mission to unite his homeland of Alethkar was too narrow in scope. Unless all the nations of Roshar can put Dalinar's blood-soaked past aside and stand together - and unless Dalinar himself can confront that past - even the restoration of the Knights Radiant will not avert the end of civilization.

It's listening to beautiful music, performed so loud as to eliminate all subtlety - taking something beautiful and making it carnal. '
(Wit to Shallan - Book three Stormlight Archive, Part II)
He stood up and started pacing. 'Damnation. I didn't mean to say it like that. I'm sorry. I just...I keep worrying that I'm going to screw this up somehow.'
'You worry you're going to screw it up?' Shallan said, feeling a warmth inside that wasn't completely due to the wine.
'I'm not good with relationships, Shallan.'
'Is there anyone who actually is? I mean, is there really someone out there who looks at relationships and thinks, "You know what, I've got this"? Personally, I rather think we're all collectively idiots about it.'
