The Stormlight Archive

The Stormlight Archive is set on the storm-swept world of Roshar, where humans live in the shadow of ancient legends and the ever-present threat of the Parshendi. The story follows Kaladin, a young man forced into slavery as a bridgeman on the Shattered Plains, as he struggles to protect those around him amid brutal warfare and rigid social hierarchies. At its heart, the series explores the tension between personal honor, survival, and the mysterious forces that may be stirring once more across the land.
