The Way of Kings, by Brandon Sanderson, 1st book in The Sormlight Archive
Borrowed my son's copyPublished in 2010
Fiction, fantasy, war, world building, series
Recommend: Yes
My son received the 5th book in this series as a gift and since it had been a while since he had read the first four, he started over so he could remember them before reading #5. I had picked up Sanderson's books previously and hadn't finished any of them because they take a bit to get into the story. My son bet me that I couldn't finish all 1000 pages of the first book before he finished the second one. Game on. I lost! But really I didn't because I enjoyed this book. It's been forever since I've read an intense world building fantasy series and I forgot how much I liked them. It took the entire month of June for me to finish it, but it was well worth it. And yes, I will be reading the next book as it's already on my Kindle!
