Sanderson melds complex, believable characters, a marvelous world and thoughtful, ironic humor into an extraordinary and highly entertaining story." --<i>Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Warbreaker</i> <p/>"Sanderson again demonstrates his capacity for handling large and complex themes while creating believable characters." --<i>Library Journal (starred review) on Warbreaker</i> <p/>"Hilarious dialogue, descriptive action sequences, and genuinely sweet romance. . . . Sanderson knows how to wrap things up cleanly. He spins a world that's easily complex and mysterious enough to warrant sequels, but prefers to end it climactically, answering many of his biggest questions, while leaving others to the imagination." --<i>The Onion on Warbreaker</i> <p/>"Sanderson is clearly a master of large-scale stories, splendidly depicting worlds as well as strong female characters. . . . May the author write long and prosper." --<i>Booklist on Warbreaker</i> <p/>"A highly readable and compelling stand-alone volume from the acclaimed author of the Mistborn trilogy. . . .
