The Way of Kings is the first book in the Stormlight Archive series, set in the world of Roshar, a land plagued by violent storms and inhabited by diverse cultures, creatures, and magical systems. The story primarily follows three protagonists: Kaladin Stormblessed, a former surgeon turned soldier; Shallan Davar, a young noblewoman and scholar with a hidden agenda; and Dalinar Kholin, a high-ranking warlord struggling with his visions of ancient times. Kaladin’s story focuses on his journey from despair to leadership as he rises through the ranks of a military unit, all while confronting his inner demons. Shallan seeks to unlock the secrets of ancient powers while grappling with her troubled past, while Dalinar attempts to unite the warring kingdoms of Roshar, driven by a mysterious force he believes is guiding him.

As the characters’ paths unfold, the novel intricately weaves together themes of honor, duty, and the harsh realities of war, exploring the complexity of the human spirit and the world around them. The book introduces readers to an expansive world filled with dangerous creatures, political intrigue, and evolving relationships between characters. The magical system is based on the use of gemstones and stormlight, with an emphasis on “Surges” that grant incredible powers. Sanderson’s world-building is extensive, with intricate histories and cultures that play key roles in the characters’ journeys. Throughout the novel, the characters’ struggles are intertwined with larger cosmic forces, setting the stage for a grand, epic conflict that promises to have far-reaching consequences for Roshar and beyond.
