This book is so much better than it has any right to be. A thousand pages tome that is the first volume of a ten book epic, merely introducing the characters and setting, should be boring. But this book is anything but boring. The setting is a high fantasy world in turmoil and the characters are interesting and feel real. Sanderson accomplishes his goal of setting the pieces of his game without ever feeling that he's trying too hard. Overall I found it engrossing and enjoyed my time with it.

Majestic, domineering, overwhelming. The Way of Kings is a story about reclamation; on a fictional world called Roshar, mankind reclaims the tools and weapons of a grander past, individuals reclaim the powers of ancient mage-knights, known as Radiants, and a society bereft of honor begins its first steps towards remembering its grand origins.
An absolutely wonderful beginning to a ten-book series that all fantasy enthusiasts should read.
