Synopsis "Warbreaker (in English)"

From the author of the connected universe of the Cosmere comes the standalone novel from which spring characters who later play roles in the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive. In the world of Warbreaker, each person is born endowed with the power of one Breath--which can be sold and collected by others, then used to Awaken objects and even corpses to do their bidding. A few individuals who die in glory return as gods, with the power of thousands of Breath, but no memory of their mortal lives--and are enthroned in the Court of Gods in Hallandren's capital. To Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris, the abuse of Breath and the claim of the Returned to be gods are repugnant blasphemy. But with one princess wed to the God King of their nation's enemies in a bid for peace, the other finds she must rely on Breath-using mercenaries to try to rescue her sister from her monstrous husband. Lightsong the Bold, a lesser god who doubts his own religion, starts investigating mysterious murders in the Court of Gods and uncovers haunting clues to his own forgotten past. He is one of four gods who controls the army of Awakened Lifeless soldiers, and one faction is inciting an invasion of Idris despite the marriage treaty. Vasher--wielder of the sapient sword Nightblood--works behind the scenes against the declaration of war, but Lightsong's visions of bloodshed prophesy its inevitability. Can the new queen, unaware of her sister's imminent rescue attempt, persuade Lightsong and also somehow get through to the aloof God King--who she has been forbidden to speak to or even look in the eyes--before her homeland is destroyed?

Brandon Sanderson (Lincoln, Nebraska, 19 de diciembre de 1975) es un escritor estadounidense de literatura fantástica y ciencia ficción. Es conocido sobre todo por el universo ficticio de Cosmere, en el que se ambientan la mayoría de sus novelas de fantasía, entre las que destacan las series Nacidos de la bruma (Mistborn) y El archivo de las tormentas. Fuera del Cosmere, ha escrito varias series juveniles y para jóvenes adultos, como The Reckoners, la serie Skyward y la serie Alcatraz. También es conocido por haber terminado la serie de alta fantasía de Robert Jordan La Rueda del Tiempo. Sanderson ha creado varias novelas gráficas de fantasía, como White Sand o Dark One.

Creó las Leyes de la Magia de Sanderson y popularizó la idea de sistemas de «magia dura» y «magia blanda». ​En 2008, Sanderson inició un podcast con el escritor Dan Wells y el dibujante Howard Tayler llamado Writing Excuses, en el que se tratan temas sobre crear escritura de géneros y webcómics. En 2016, la compañía de medios estadounidense DMG Entertainment obtiene los derechos de todo el universo de Cosmere creado por Sanderson,​ pero desde entonces los derechos han vuelto a manos de Sanderson. La campaña de Kickstarter de Sanderson de marzo de 2022 se convirtió en la más exitosa de la historia, con 185.341 donantes que prometieron 41'754.153 dólares.

Nacido en Nebraska,​ es miembro de la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días (mormón) y actualmente reside en Provo (Utah), con su esposa Emily con la que contrajo matrimonio el 7 de julio de 2006.​ Obtuvo un máster en Literatura Creativa en 2005 en la Brigham Young University,​ donde fue compañero de habitación del campeón de Jeopardy! Ken Jennings.​ Ha sido nominado dos veces para el Premio John W. Campbell.
