Illustrated by Ernanda Souza, Nabeste Zitro, and kudriaken. Running. Putting distance between himself and the relentless Night Brigade has been Nomadโs strategy for years. Staying one or two steps ahead of his pursuers by skipping through the Cosmere from one world to the next. But now, his powers too depleted to escape, Nomad finds himself trapped on Canticle, a planet that will kill anyone who doesnโt keep moving. Fleeing the fires of a sunrise that melts the very stones, he is instantly caught up in the struggle between a heartless tyrant and the brave rebels who defy him. Failure means a quick death, incinerated by the sunโฆor a lifetime as a mindless slave. Tormented by the consequences of his past, Nomad must fight not only for his survivalโbut also for his very soul. Note from Brandon: I sincerely believe that books donโt live until theyโre read. While I would write even if no one were readingโitโs who I amโI thrive because I know the stories are being brought to life by all of you. In this, stories are a special kind of art, particularly when written down. Each of you will imagine this book, and its characters, a little differentlyโyou will each put your own stamp on it, making it yours. I donโt believe a story is quite finished until that has happenedโuntil the dream in my head has become a reality (even if briefly) in yours. And so this book is yours, as they all are once you read them. Thank you so much for bringing life to my work, and to the Cosmere.
