Contraint de se téléporter de planète en planète afin d’échapper à la Brigade nocturne, Nomade ne s’attarde jamais nulle part. Cependant, son dernier saut l’ayant vidé de son énergie, il se retrouve coincé sur Cantique, un monde inconnu où le soleil désintègre tout sur son passage. Capturé par le Roi des Braises, il est sur le point de devenir l’un de ses guerriers-esclaves lorsqu’un petit groupe de rebelles débarque pour délivrer les autres prisonniers. S’enfuyant avec eux, Nomade devra alors faire un choix : libérer le peuple du joug du tyran ou continuer de fuir.

L’Ensoleillé est le dernier des quatre « romans secrets » écrits par Brandon Sanderson, l’auteur best-seller aux trente millions d’exemplaires vendus à travers le monde, durant les confinements de la pandémie de Covid-19. Ces romans ont fait l’objet d’une campagne de financement participatif record sur la plateforme Kickstarter aux États-Unis.

The book has a few pictures, which are nice. But even without those, I would get a very strong mental imagery from the text. It's just a very visual book for me. Almost monochromatic, the whole book is set at night and illuminated only by cinderhearts, storms, and explosions. There's a lot of action and it's …

Cosmere fans only

I don't think this book would stand that well on its own if you haven't read other Cosmere books. It feels more like BrandoSando's just geeking out about how his different magic systems would interact. I enjoyed it, but I'll have to see if I can get someone who's brand new to Cosmere stuff (or just critical of references to other books in the shared universe period, even if already familiar with some Cosmere books) to give it a spin.
