WARBREAKER is the story of two sisters - who happen to be princesses,the God King one of them has to marry,a lesser god,and an immortal trying to undo the mistakes he made hundreds of years ago.Theirs is a world in which those who die in glory return as gods to live confined to a pantheon in Hallandren's capital city. A world transformed by BioChromatic magic,a power based on an essence known as breath. Using magic is arduous: breath can only be collected one unit at a time from individual people.But the rewards are great: by using breath and drawing upon the color in everyday objects,all manner of miracles and mischief can be performed.Brandon Sanderson proves again that he is a master of what Tolkien called'secondary creation,'the invention of whole worlds,complete with magics and myths all their own.
