About this listen

 The long-awaited explosive climax to the first arc of the Number One New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive.

Dalinar Kholin challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar on the line. The Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare-and the sudden ascension of the crafty and ruthless Taravangian to take Odium's place has thrown everything into disarray.

Desperate fighting continues simultaneously worldwide-Adolin in Azimir, Sigzil and Venli at the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah at Thaylen City. The former assassin, Szeth, must cleanse his homeland of Shinovar from the dark influence of the Unmade. He is accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new battle helping Szeth fight his own demons . . . and who must do the same for the insane Herald of the Almighty, Ishar.

At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain work to unravel the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram and her involvement in the enslavement of the singer race and in the ancient Knights Radiants killing their spren. And Dalinar and Navani seek an edge against Odium's champion that can be found only in the Spiritual Realm, where memory and possibility combine in chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.©2024 Dragonsteel Entertainment LLC Action & Adventure Best of 2024 Dark Fantasy Editors Select Epic Fantasy Genre Fiction Historical War & Military Emotionally Gripping

Critic reviews

At a time when so much in life is a struggle, Sanderson has a rare talent for bringing wonder to the page - and the Wind and Truth stands as a blockbusting testament to a writer who has put the fun back in reading

Loved it, previous four books of character development and world building tied up in an immensely satisfying end of an era.

If you're looking for an audiobook to immerse you in a compelling story, this isn't it. The narration is so flat and devoid of emotion that it feels like listening to a washing machine manual. The narrator's tone is monotonous, with no effort to convey the characters' emotions or the tension of key moments. Any dramatic or poignant scenes are delivered with the same energy as instructions for setting a rinse cycle. This lifeless performance drains the story of its potential impact, leaving it dull and unmemorable. Save your time and look for a version with a more dynamic narrator, or just read it yourself.

you better off reading it yourself.

I loved it, so satisfying to see how each character develops and the fate of Rochar.

Best so far!

Great as always from BrandoSando, and great performances by the narrators. The only issue I found is that it just went on for a little too long found myself switching off at some points as the detail was just a little too much and not needed in my eyes, maybe editors could of reined it in a little. but over all fantastic and love his work!

Great Book, just a tad too long
