Elantris (10th Anniversary Edition: Author's Definitive Edition)

An essential novel for lovers of epic fantasy. By the acclaimed author of the genre Brandon Sanderson.

"The most beautiful fantasy novel to be written in many years."
Orson Scott Card, author of Ender's Game

Welcome to the city of Elantris, the powerful and beautiful capital of Arelon called "the city of gods." Once a famous seat of immortals, a place full of powerful magic, Elantris has fallen into disgrace. Now it only shelters the new "living dead," prostrated in an unbearable "non-life" after a mysterious and terrible transformation.

A state marriage destined to unite the kingdoms of Arelon and Teod is thwarted, as the groom, Raoden, the prince of Arelon, unexpectedly suffers the Transformation, becomes a "living dead" and must take refuge in Elantris. His recent wife, Princess Sarene of Teod, believing him dead, is forced to join the life of Arelon and its new capital, Kae. Meanwhile, the ambassador and high priest of another neighboring kingdom, Fjordell, will use his political skill to try to dominate Arelod and Teod with the purpose of subjecting them to his emperor and his god.

-------
Brandon Sanderson debuted in 2006 with Elantris, an epic fantasy novel that marked a true milestone. On the tenth anniversary of its publication, Nova re-releases it in this special edition, which allows us to recall and discover the beginnings of an author who, since then, has garnered eight million followers worldwide, confirming his status as heir to the throne of an entire genre.

This new version, converted into the author's definitive edition, begins with a preface by Dan Wells, the first person to read the complete manuscript, and a new prologue by Miquel Barceló, his first editor in Spanish. It closes with an epilogue in which Sanderson himself tells us why he wrote this novel and its importance in the Cosmere, the fascinating universe shared by most of his works. An expanded version of the "Ars Arcanum" appendix is also included, with more technical details about the magic of a mythical book for its legion of readers.

Brandon Sanderson (Lincoln, Nebraska, 1975) es el gran autor de fantasía del siglo XXI, con treinta millones de lectores, y el autor más prolífico del mundo. Desde que debutara en 2006 con su novela Elantris, ha deslumbrado a lectores en treinta lenguas con el Cosmere, el fascinante universo de magia que comparten la mayoría de sus obras. Sanderson es autor de la brillante saga Nacidos de la Bruma (Mistborn), formada por El Imperio Final, El Pozo de la Ascensión, El Héroede las Eras, Aleación de ley, Sombras de identidad y Brazales de Duelo. Tras El aliento de los dioses, una obra de fantasía épica en un único volumen en la línea de Elantris, inició con El camino de los reyes una magna y descomunal decalogía, El Archivo de las Tormentas, que continuó con Palabras radiantes, Juramentada y El Ritmo de la Guerra (además de la novela corta Esquirla del Amanecer). Con la serie Escuadrón (Escuadrón, Estelar, Citónica y Escuadrón Cielo), Sanderson se acerca, también, a los lectores de la ciencia ficción. Con un plan de publicación de más de veinte futuras obras (que contempla la interconexión de todas ellas), el Cosmere se convertirá en el universo más extenso e impresionante jamás escrito en fantasía épica.

Sanderson vive en Utah con su esposa e hijos y enseña escritura creativa en la Universidad Brigham Young. Curso de escritura creativa es el libro que recoge sus valiosos consejos.
