La ciudad de Elantris, poderosa y bella capital de Arelon, había sido llamada la "ciudad de los dioses". Antaño famosa sede de inmortales, un lugar repleto de poderosa magia, Elantris ha caído en desgracia. Ahora sólo acoge a los nuevos "muertos en vida", postrados en una insufrible "no-vida" tras una misteriosa y terrible transformación. Un matrimonio de estado destinado a unir los dos reinos de Arelon y Teod se frustra, ya que el novio, Raoden, el príncipe de Arelon, sufre inesperadamente la Transformación y se convierte en un "muerto en vida" obligado a refugiarse en Elantris. Su reciente esposa, la princesa Sarene de Teod, creyéndole muerto, se ve obligada a incorporarse a la vida de Arelon y su nueva capital Kae, a la que aporta un nuevo elemento: la novedad y, tal vez, el caos. Mientras, el embajador y alto sacerdote de otro reino vecino, Fjordell, va a usar su todopoderosa religión y su habilidad política como manipulador de seres humanos para intentar dominar los dos reinos de Arelod y Teod, con el propósito de somerterlos a su emperador y su dios. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThere's a force in Arelon known as the Dor that randomly chooses people and grants them divine powers. Elantris was once the city of the gods, where anyone who was 'chosen' went to live. Ten years ago, the Elantrians lost their powers and caught a terrible disease instead. From that point on, Elantris became a quarantine zone for any that caught that disease.

Elantris was built on magic and it thrived. But then the magic began to fade and Elantris began to rot. And now its shattered citizens face domination by a powerful Imperium motivated by dogged religious views. Can a young Princess unite the people of Elantris, rediscover the lost magic and lead a rebellion against the imperial zealots? Brandon Sanderson's debut fantasy showed his skill as a storyteller and an imaginer of baroque magical systems to be fully developed from the start.

In 2005, Brandon Sanderson debuted with Elantris, an epic fantasy unlike any other then on the market. To celebrate its tenth anniversary, Tor is reissuing Elantris in a special edition, a fresh chance to introduce it to the myriad readers who have since become Sanderson fans. This new edition begins with a preface by author Dan Wells, the first person to read the completed novel, and a new afterword by Sanderson explaining how he came to write the book and its place in the Cosmere, the unified universe of all his Tor novels. Also included is an expanded version of the "Ars Arcanum" appendix, with more of the technical details of the book's magic that fans can never get enough of.Elantris was truly a milestone both for Sanderson and for the genre of epic fantasy. It deserves this special treatment, something Tor has done only once before, with Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. Sanderson fans old and new will be excited to discover it.Other Tor books by Brandon Sanderson The Cosmere The Stormlight Archive The Way of Kings Words of Radiance Edgedancer (Novella) Oathbringer The Mistborn trilogy Mistborn: The Final Empire The Well of Ascension The Hero of Ages Mistborn: The Wax and Wayne series Alloy of Law Shadows of Self Bands of Mourning Collection Arcanum Unbounded Other Cosmere novels Elantris Warbreaker The Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians series Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians The Scrivener's Bones The Knights of Crystallia The Shattered Lens The Dark Talent The Rithmatist series The Rithmatist Other books by Brandon Sanderson The Reckoners Steelheart Firefight Calamity
