About this product

Product Information

Elantris was the capital of Arelon: gigantic, beautiful, literally radiant, filled with benevolent beings who used their powerful magical abilities for the benefit of all. Yet each of these demigods was once an ordinary person until touched by the mysterious transforming power of the Shaod. Ten years ago, without warning, the magic failed. Elantrians became wizened, leper-like, powerless creatures, and Elantris itself dark, filthy, and crumbling. Arelon's new capital, Kae, crouches in the shadow of Elantris. Princess Sarene of Teod arrives for a marriage of state with Crown Prince Raoden, hoping -- based on their correspondence -- to also find love. She finds instead that Raoden has died and she is considered his widow. Both Teod and Arelon are under threat as the last remaining holdouts against the imperial ambitions of the ruthless religious fanatics of Fjordell. So Sarene decides to use her new status to counter the machinations of Hrathen, a Fjordell high priest who has come to Kae to convert Arelon and claim it for his emperor and his god. But neither Sarene nor Hrathen suspect the truth about Prince Raoden. Stricken by the same curse that ruined Elantris, Raoden was secretly exiled by his father to the dark city. His struggle to help the wretches trapped there begins a series of events that will bring hope to Arelon, and perhaps reveal the secret of Elantris itself.

  • Sanderson Delivers! A Great First Book - A Great Read!

    The first page will hook you - you won't want to put the book down until you've finished! Brandon Sanderson's first published novel is a great example of exciting and well-defined fantasy writing. The story has a plot full of twists and turns, but is never boring or tedious. The story can be seen as religiously inspirational, or just as a superb book! The story is about a city that used to be the home of the "gods" of the land when life was good, but all that has changed. What happened to the city, the religion, the magic, etc. must all be discovered for the city and surrounding lands to prosper again. Three people will step forward to save the land from destruction, though in extremely different ways. As you may know, Brandon Sanderson is filling in as the author of the last Wheel ...

  • First Novel by Brandon Sanderson

    This first novel by Brandon Sanderson will thrill the Fantasy lover. I just had to read Mr. Sanderson after the announcement that he will be completing the Wheel of Time Epic for the late Robert Jordan (James Oliver Rigney, Jr. (October 17, 1948 – September 16, 2007)). I will admit I was very skeptical at first, but now… I’ll read the rest of his works, and anything he pens in the future. Well done! I can not wait for "A Memory of Light".
