Product Description
After bursting onto the fantasy scene with his acclaimed debut novel, Elantris, and following up with his blockbuster Mistborn trilogy, Brandon Sanderson proves again that he is today’s leading master of what Tolkien called secondary creation,” the invention of whole worlds, perfect with magics and myths all their own.
Warbreaker is the tale of two sisters, who take place 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 persons 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.

Why would I pay 15.99 for the Kindle edition when the paperback is 6.99? Disappointed in Kindle and Amazon on this one.

The Mistborn books were probably the best I have read in the Fantasy realm, so I was pleased to see when Sanderson came out with this new book. I stopped reading it 150 pages into it. I don’t know all the excellent reviews. The Mistborn books had a excellent mixture of action and character development. This book is just a bunch of yapping by the main characters. Only in the Prologue of the book has the magic been used and absolutely nothing has happened. I had huge hopes for this book. I might give it another 50 pages, but I cannot take anymore of the ‘witty’ Gods babbling to each additional.

I read the book and never got into it. It is the weakest fantasy book I have read. I will grant that I have only read giants of fantasy (Robert Jordan, George RR Martin, Tad Williams, etc).
Characters: Underdeveloped
Magic: Underused
Sense of drama: Zero
Plot: Average
Adventure: None

After the hype for the book, I was kind of dissapointed. I was not expecting a masterpiece but this book is plainly terrible. I will try Mistborn from Sanderson and see if it is a bit better. I know that Sanderson is a new leader, hopefully he will get better at his craft.

This was a lesson in buying kindle books. I find the process less satisfying than bookstore shopping and the terrible experience with Warbreaker only made it worse. I establish the book to be more suitable for an eighth grader than a name who has ever been in a mature relationship or an adult conflict. It was simplistic and made me remember the axiom “dues ex machina” for the first time since college theater class. To everyone who claimed it got better in the end, please read more quality fiction before you encourage others to waste their time on mediocrity
This book reminded me a lot of the “Maximum Ride” books by James Patterson. While lots of fans raved about them, they really made me swear off Patterson forever because I felt like he abused his name to steal my money. Since this is the first Sanderson book I have read I don’t feel cheated, but I don’t reflect it bodes well for the Veer of Time, and that is a bring shame on. He lacked any of Jordan’s depth or believability. Trite is a word that keeps coming to mind.
