Elantris

Description

In 2005, Brandon Sanderson debuted with Elantris, an epic fantasy unlike any other then on the market. To celebrate its tenth anniversary, Tor is reissuing Elantris in a special edition, a fresh chance to introduce it to the myriad readers who have since become Sanderson fans. This new edition begins with a preface by author Dan Wells, the first person to read the completed novel, and a new afterword by Sanderson explaining how he came to write the book and its place in the Cosmere, the unified universe of all his Tor novels. Also included is an expanded version of the "Ars Arcanum" appendix, with more of the technical details of the book's magic that fans can never get enough of. Elantris was truly a milestone both for Sanderson and for the genre of epic fantasy. It deserves this special treatment, something Tor has done only once before, with Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. Sanderson fans old and new will be excited to discover it.

Description

ELANTRIS was the city of the gods. What power could have cursed it? RAODEN, prince of Arelon, was loved by all, including the princess he'd never met. Where has he gone? HRATHEN, high priest of Fjordell, will convert the people of Arelon or kill them. How will be decide? SARENE princess of Teod, was a widow before she was ever married. Who can stand against her? With ELANTRIS, Brandon Sanderson, fantasy's new master story- teller, carries you away to "a truly original world of magic and intrigue,with the rigor of the best science fiction [and] magnificent characters [that] make this novel unforgettable" (Orson Scott Card). Elantris delightfully proves that a great complete fantasy story can still be told in a single volume of action, intrigue, wonder, and countless surprises. As Locus says, "You'll swiftly forget you're reading a first novel... this is a heck of a debut!" "You'll swiftly forget you're reading a first novel... this is a heck of a debut!" "Brandon Sanderson is the real thing-an exciting storyteller with a unique and powerful vision. Elantris is one of the finest debuts I've seen in years." - David Farland
