Description
To mark its 20th anniversary, Brandon Sanderon's debut novel is now available in hardback for the very first time!
Elantris was built on magic - and it thrived. But when that magic began to fade, the city began to decay. Now its shattered citizens face domination by a powerful Imperium motivated by entrenched religious views, and all hope is lost.
Or so the people think.
But it's always darkest before the dawn, and there's always hope if someone is willing to search it out. Can a young princess unite the people of Elantris, rediscover the lost magic and lead a rebellion against the imperial zealots?
Brandon Sanderson is the modern master of fantasy, and this is the story where it all began. Elantris is a breathtaking standalone adventure, a fantastic entrypoint into the Cosmere, and simply the perfect way to experience his boundless imagination.
