This is probably one of the most interesting magic systems I’ve ever read – and also one of the most scientific, in its approach. Wrapping this story is a power known as BioChromatic magic using an essence called “breath” which, with a given number in a person, can grant a person several abilities, one of which is “awakening”, which draws color in everyday objects and using it to command another. Told through multiple POVs, it tells the story of two sister princesses, gods, and immortal beings. My Breath become yours.”Īnother really great read from Brandon Sanderson! Warbreaker, set in another world (Nalthis) inside the Cosmere Universe, tells the story of the world where color is, essentially, power. It will take considerable quantities of each to resolve all the challenges facing Vivenna and Siri, princesses of Idris Susebron the God King Lightsong, reluctant god of bravery, and mysterious Vasher, the Warbreaker. Their world is one in which those who die in glory return as gods to live confined to a pantheon in Hallandren’s capital city and where a power known as BioChromatic magic is based on an essence known as breath that can only be collected one unit at a time from individual people.īy using breath and drawing upon the color in everyday objects, all manner of miracles and mischief can be accomplished.
