You pretty much have to be living under a rock not to have seen this book cover around the blogverse or heard great things about Brandon Sanderson writing. I love this cover and I'm looking forward to reading this one.
Warbreaker is the story of two sisters, who happen to be princesses, the God King one of them has to marry, the lesser god who doesn't like his job, and the immortal who's still trying to undo the mistakes he made hundreds of years ago.
Their world is one in which those who die in glory return as gods to live confined to a pantheon in Hallandren's capital city and where a power known as BioChromatic magic is based on an essence known as breath that can only be collected one unit at a time from individual people.
By using breath and drawing upon the color in everyday objects, all manner of miracles and mischief can be accomplished. It will take considerable quantities of each to resolve all the challenges facing Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris; Susebron the God King; Lightsong, reluctant god of� bravery, and mysterious Vasher, the Warbreaker.

I posted about this too. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy!
ReplyDeleteHi Anna!
ReplyDeleteIsn't this the most awesome cover!
SQT is giving away two copies right now. Check it out.
Dottie :)
Yes, I love this cover too. It's done by Dan Dos Santos. He also does the art for the Mercy Thompson & Alpha and Omega books.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good. I might have to look for it.
ReplyDeleteI must have been under some rock because I don't recall seeing this cover, but I have seen the name and title somewhere :).
Yes, I've seen this beautiful cover all over plus the reviews have all been very good on this book. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI guess living in a basement qualifies as living under a rock since I've never heard of this author or seen the book cover. It does sound interesting.
ReplyDeleteI have sure seen it around and it looks cool :D
ReplyDeleteActually this is the first time I saw this! I've mostly read Fantasy romance but none of straight fantasy and this would be something I'd like to try.
