Roshar is known as the world of storms and stone. There was some uncanny tempest of intense power which swept all across the rocky terrain. It was so severe that it shaped up the civilization and ecology alike. Animals started to protect themselves in the shells while the trees pulled in the branches. The grass on its part retracted right within the soilless ground. Cities were then planned to be constructed only at those places which would offer shelter.

It has been almost a century since the fall of the 10 different consecrated orders which were known as the Knights Radiant. However, their Shardplate and Shardblades remain. There were suits of armor and swords which converted the common man into a kind of an almost invincible warrior.

The Stormlight Archive novel series started with a bang with The Way of King’s novel. It received a huge readership both in paperback and audio versions. It is the kind of novel that will make you read the entire series, which is just so amazing.
