Years ago he had comrades in arms and a cause to believe in, but now the man who calls himself Nomad knows only a life on the run. Forced to hop from world to world in the Cosmere whenever the relentless Night Brigade gets too close, Nomad lands on a new planet and is instantly caught up in the struggle between a tyrant and the rebels who want only to escape being turned into mindless slaves—all under the constant threat of a sunrise whose heat will melt the very stones. Unable to understand the language, can he navigate the conflict and gain enough power to leap offworld before his mind or body pay the ultimate price?

A standalone Brandon Sanderson Cosmere novel about a traveler who arrives on a small planet where the sun is fatal, and dawn is always close. An engaging action story about what to do when you always have to run, how do you find connection and finding hope when all is lost. I think the best of the 4 Secret Projects from the largest Kickstarter in history The Year of Sanderson, and the other three books were excellent. I can't wait for the mid-series finale of the Stormlight Archive in book 5 next year, but what a present from one of my favorite authors.
