"The Oathbringer" is the third volume in the “Stormlight Archive” cycle, promising plenty of interesting developments. The Heralds of the Void return to Roshar—enemies mortally dangerous and driven by a thirst for revenge.
The armies of the Alethi, led by Dalinar Kholin, achieve victory, but the price is too high. The Parshendi are summoned by the Storms, a force that not only threatens to destroy the world, but also awakens among the obedient and long-subdued Parshmen a desire to rebel and free themselves from their centuries-old slavery. Trying to warn his family about the looming threat, Kaladin the Blessing of the Storm is forced to accept a hard truth: the anger of the Parshmen has solid reasons.
High in the mountains, Shallan Davar studies the wonders of Urithiru—the ancient fortress-city of the Radiant Knights—and discovers dark secrets lurking deep within it. Dalinar realizes that uniting the scattered lands of Alethkar won’t be easy: even if the peoples of Roshar manage to overcome years of hostility, and Dalinar himself rejects his bloody past, the mere revival of the Radiant Knights is not a guarantee of victory.
