About book Put Kraljeva - II Tom (2010)

Absolutely brilliant. Found Brandon Sanderson when he started working with Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, so glad I did. Finished part 1 and picked up part 2 straight away, couldn't put it down...roll on November when book 2 of the Stormlight Archives comes out :-) The Way of Kings released in two volumes due to size of book.According to mythology mankind used to live in The Tranquiline Halls. Heaven. But then the Voidbringers assaulted and captured heaven, casting out God and men. Men took root on Roshar, the world of storms. And the Voidbringers followed . . .They came against man ten thousand times. To help them cope, the Almighty gave men powerful suits of armor and mystical weapons, known as Shardblades. Led by ten angelic Heralds and ten orders of knights known as Radiants, mankind finally won.Or so the legends say. Today, the only remnants of those supposed battles are the Shardblades, the possession of which makes a man nearly invincible on the battlefield. The entire world is at war with itself - and has been for centuries since the Radiants turned against mankind. Kings strive to win more Shardblades, each secretly wishing to be the one who will finally unite all of mankind under a single throne.On a world scoured down to the rock by terrifying hurricanes that blow through every few days is a young spearman ,forced into the army of a Shardbearer, led to war against an enemy he doesn't understand and doesn't really want to fight.What happened deep in mankind's past?Why did the Radiants turn against mankind, and what happened to the magic they used to wield? "The Way of Kings" won Brandon Sanderson the Gemmell Legend Award (for the best heroic fantasy novel)earlier this year, so I sat down to read it with considerable anticipation.Also, to clarify "The Way of Kings" has been published in two parts so I'll be publishing the same comments under both books on my shelves here. "The Way of Kings" is classically conceived epic fantasy—but I like classically conceived epic fantasy, so I had no problem with that as a starting premise. And I really liked "The Way of Kings." The story does commence in a traditional way, but the story quickly breaks out of any sense of the familiar that may engender, introducing a complex plot and a range of engaging characters caught up in difficult events. The world and its societies are interesting, too, and the evolving magic system intriguing, although I think the main interest in the story does lie with the characters. And the strong desire to know what was happening with Kaladin, the bridgebearer; Shallan, the sheltered noblewoman turned scholar; and Dalinar, the general, kept me absorbed in turning all those 1116 pages that comporise the two volumes."The Way of Kings" has pace, action, and character development, and even though I did guess some of the plot twists, these are signaled for the alert reader—and the book has (more than) sufficient depth of story that it need not rely on sleight-of-plot to succeed as a reading experience. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am very much looking forward to the next instalment.
