'''''[[{{b|twok|}}]]''''' is the first volume of ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'', an epic fantasy series by [[Brandon Sanderson]].
 
[[File:Shadesmar (TWoK).jpg|thumb|right|text-top|300px|x200x|alt=Shadesmar|Map of Shadesmar, the Cognitive Realm]]
It has three main characters and several minor characters, many of whom are explored through Interludes.
 
'''Shadesmar''' is the [[Cognitive Realm]]. So far the only known characters to travel there are [[Hoid]], [[Shallan Davar]] and [[Jasnah Kholin]]. Hoid's method for travelling there is not yet known, though he uses it to travel from world to world. It is possible other worldhoppers use Shadesmar similarly.
The Way of Kings also has a series of [[The Way of Kings/Epigraphs|Epigraphs]], which give hints of foreshadowing and information about the [[Cosmere]].
 
===Appearance===
===[[The Way of Kings/Summary|Summary]]===
{{quote|... a place with a black sky and a strange, small white sun that hung on the horizon ... Flames hovered nearby ... Like the tips of candles floating in the air and moving with the wind ... An endless dark sea, except it wasn't wet. It was made of the small beads, an entire ocean of tiny glass spheres|Shallan Davar{{bref|WoK|c|45}}}}
''{{b|twok|}}'' follows the stories of [[Kaladin]], [[Dalinar Kholin]], and [[Shallan Davar]].
There are also several minor characters who receive viewpoints; [[Szeth]], [[Adolin Kholin]], [[Wit]], and [[Navani Kholin]] in the main text, and several others in the Interludes.
 
Geographically it appears to be a reflection of [[Roshar]], with its inland seas corresponding exactly to the shape of the land of Roshar.
====Kaladin====
 
'''Kaladin''' is the focus character of the novel.
===Uses===
At the beginning of his story, he is a squadleader in [[Amaram]]'s army.
Shadesmar can be visited by those with an inherent Soulcasting ability in order to Soulcast.... '''([[Shadesmar|see more!]])'''
His storyline then cuts to his time as a slave.
As a slave in [[Sadeas]]'s army, he is placed in Bridge Four, and made to run headlong into enemy fire with the rest of his bridgecrew to give the army a way to cross the chasms.
After a period of despair, Kaladin works to improve the life of his bridgecrew... '''([[The Way of Kings|see more!]])'''
