Publisher Description
An instant #1 New York Times Bestseller and a USA Today and Indie Bestseller!
The Stormlight Archive saga continues in Rhythm of War, the eagerly awaited sequel to Brandon Sanderson's #1 New York Times bestselling Oathbringer, from an epic fantasy writer at the top of his game.
After forming a coalition of human resistance against the enemy invasion, Dalinar Kholin and his Knights Radiant have spent a year fighting a protracted, brutal war. Neither side has gained an advantage, and the threat of a betrayal by Dalinar’s crafty ally Taravangian looms over every strategic move.
Now, as new technological discoveries by Navani Kholin’s scholars begin to change the face of the war, the enemy prepares a bold and dangerous operation. The arms race that follows will challenge the very core of the Radiant ideals, and potentially reveal the secrets of the ancient tower that was once the heart of their strength.
At the same time that Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with his changing role within the Knights Radiant, his Windrunners face their own problem: As more and more deadly enemy Fused awaken to wage war, no more honorspren are willing to bond with humans to increase the number of Radiants. Adolin and Shallan must lead the coalition’s envoy to the honorspren stronghold of Lasting Integrity and either convince the spren to join the cause against the evil god Odium, or personally face the storm of failure.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Rhythm of War is where all the trouble stirred up in the sweeping Stormlight Archive fantasy series’ first three books really starts coming to a head. The Knights Radiant, who put their lives on the line for the sake of their world, are experiencing some epic battle fatigue in their fight against the sinister Odium’s forces. A year of war hasn’t gained them much ground, and they’re increasingly unsure how much they can trust their friends. Meanwhile, the souls of ancient enemies are taking new form to tilt the odds even further against them. Knights leader Dalinar Kholin’s job has never seemed less desirable. Brandon Sanderson makes you care about his characters without sacrificing a bit of the breathtaking, bigger-than-life action that gets readers’ hearts thumping extra hard.
Customer Reviews
See AllAs with all in the series you need to be patient
The book continues to build on various storylines, develops characters outside the core characters from the early books, and provides some clues/glimpses into what will come in Book 5. As always the culmination has you tense, worried, fearful for the characters then (at least for me) whooping in joy in public places in the finale!
Breathtaking
Storms. I read this book in 3 days. It’s incredible of course, but you already know that - it’s book 4 of the Stormlight Archive!
