Story
Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his will. Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father.

After a few billion years of bearing witness to life on Earth, of watching one hundred billion humans go about their day-to-day lives, of feeling unbelievably lonely, and of hearing its own story told by others, The Milky Way would like a chance to speak for itself. All one hundred billion stars and fifty undecillion tons of gas of it. It all began some thirteen billion years ago, when clouds of gas scattered through the universe's primordial plasma just could not keep their metaphorical hands off each other.

From his office beneath Midtown, he oversees the Drakeford Curse, which involves a pathetic family upstate and a mysterious black monolith. It’s a sexy enough assignment—colonial origins, mutating victims, et cetera—but Laszlo has no interest in maximizing the curse’s potential; he’d rather sunbathe in Ibiza, quaff martinis, and hustle the hustlers on Manhattan’s subway.

For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

Story
Twenty-eight florins a month is a huge price to pay for a man to stand between you and the Wild. Twenty-eight florins a month is nowhere near enough when a wyvern's jaws snap shut on your helmet in the hot stink of battle, and the beast starts to rip the head from your shoulders. But if standing and fighting is hard, leading a company of men - or worse, a company of mercenaries - against the smart, deadly creatures of the Wild is even harder. It takes all the advantages of birth, training, and the luck of the devil to do it.

But be careful in that wish, for even a history laid in ink can be repaid in flesh and blood, and reality is far deadlier than fiction...especially on Addington Isle.

So begins Kaikeyi’s story. The only daughter of the kingdom of Kekaya, she is raised on legends of the gods: how they churned the vast ocean to obtain the nectar of immortality, how they vanquish evil and ensure the land of Bharat prospers, and how they offer powerful boons to the devout and the wise. Yet she watches as her father unceremoniously banishes her mother, listens as her own worth is reduced to how great a marriage alliance she can secure. And when she calls upon the gods for help, they never seem to hear.

Story
Founded in London in 1717 as a way of binding men in fellowship, Freemasonry proved so addictive that within two decades it had spread across the globe. Masonic influence became pervasive. Under George Washington, the Craft became a creed for the new American nation. Masonic networks held the British empire together. Under Napoleon, the Craft became a tool of authoritarianism and then a cover for revolutionary conspiracy. Both the Mormon Church and the Sicilian mafia owe their origins to Freemasonry.

Slow beginng but worth it
I found it slow going in the beginning but have loved Brandon Sanderson's other books so I listened on. The last third of the book is worth the read. The characters took awhile to develop but are worth it in the long run. Narration was good overall.

This book was a pleasant surprise
Give this title a fair chance. The characters are deep, the story fulfilling and the end was perfect. The author's words painted beautiful pictures to bind the imagination to the story. At times, I thought the narrator wasn't a perfect fit, yet other times I could not imagine another. Very glad I used one credit for this title based on Orson Scott Card's acclaim for the writer.

Great book!
I am currently binging all of Brandon Sanderson’s books and this is definitely a weaker book than something like the storm light archives. That being said, comparing this book to other authors is what made it 5 stars!
Brandon Sanderson is an incredible writer and it shows even in his first book

Narrated by Zapp Brannigan
I enjoy brandons worlds and people very much. this was his earlier establishing work. it's no mistborn or stormlight but it's good. satisfying ending.
the narrator is great, except about halfway through he started to sound like Zapp Brannigan from Futurama and I couldn't stop hearing it.

Glad I stayed committed to the book!
Listening to Elantris after Mistborn and The Stormlight Archives. It got quite rambly up until the last 3-4 hours, and I would have liked fewer awkward pauses from the narrator. But overall, the author and narrator told a great epic. Definitely worth experiencing!

Couldn’t stand narration
The story was ok. Having read Stormlight first, this one doesn’t even come close. I might have liked it better to read it but listening to it, I didn’t really enjoy it. The narrator had so much affectation in every sentence, he reminded me of a game show host. I stopped halfway through and left it for a long time, but being a big fan of Brandon Sanderson I committed to finishing it. Underwhelmed and will avoid books read by this narrator in the future. Maybe some would like it, but I suggest listening to the sample first to tell if you enjoy his style, because it’s consistently like that and it grated on my nerves.
