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.

O maaatko ależ mi się to długo czytało. Tylko nie zrozumcie mnie źle. Ksiażka jest fajna, ale ja nie jestem jej adresatem . A wszystko sugerowało, że będzie inaczej. Chcecie posłuchać dlaczego? No dobrze, zaczynamy. Po pierwsze sięgnąłem po nią, ponieważ jestem po lekturze "Słów światłości" a wg k...
Interesting idea using colour and breath as a basis for magic, just felt a little too much like concept over story.In a world where some people return as better forms of themselves to be able to grant one healing, many use this second chance, where they are treated as gods to indulge themselves, unt...
