About this deal

For example, dividing a full novel into three volumes just won’t work in general. Imagine reading a novel and after 1/3 you have to stop until next year for the next 1/3 and so on, that’s the case for White Sands. This situation caused the story itself to lose its charm, it’s still good, nothing bad, nothing amazing but it could’ve been done so much better if they actually adapted the whole novel straight into one huge volume or at least release all three close to each other so we won’t have to wait that long. The plot of the first volume actually ended where it was getting interesting. We are losing money on this campaign right now, but that’s ok, we promised you a book, and you will get the book, and you will get it at the quality that it should be. We will do everything we can do to deliver what we promised, a great book. A great book that was worked on by creators that had more content added by Isaac that had a lot of work done by the editorial and production department with Dragonsteel. And no matter what the cost, you will get that book. Por un lado tenemos a Kenton, que sueña ser un maestro de arena, pero su padre sabe que no tiene el poder suficiente y se niega a aceptar a su hijo entre los suyos.

Las piezas empiezan a encajar, o eso nos hace creer Brandon (ya se sabe, siempre hay otro secreto) y nuestra propia comprensión de este mundo, de sus personajes y sus motivaciones y nuestro afán de saber más nos hace prisioneros de la novela y no podemos soltarla. Vaya, classic Brandon. Novela gráfica, así que el arte tampoco ayuda a dejar el libro en la mesita y dormir. Khriss was insufferable though her character improved towards the end. Instead Ais replaced her as one of the worst characters I've ever seen. I hated her inner dialogue. It was so cringe. It reminded me of Warbreaker which I used to consider by far the worst Cosmere novel. Well, now it has a companion.Khriss was *completely* recharacterized. Her prologue and new scenes frame her as a main character alongside Kenton, and the book really feels like it's as much her story as his. Pero en su viaje por las dunas, Khriss encontrará una masacre y a un malherido Kelton, al que salvará la vida. Como compensación, Kelton los enseñará donde pueden buscar agua y ser su guía hasta la capital de Lossand, y encontrar a esos magos de la arena. I prefer the original novel by Sanderson, as opposed to this adaptation by Rik Hoskin. Doesn't seem authentic to have Sandersons' name front and center, while the poor narration is derived from someone else. Would hate to have someone read this on the basis that its Sanderson material and then get an erroneous idea of what his actual work is like.

Kelton es un maestro de la arena, o al menos aspira a serlo; es el novato del diem al que peor se le da la habilidad y para colmo de males es el propio hijo del lord Mastrell, el poder supremo de la institución. Unos achacan a que Kelton no posee el poder suficiente porque su madre era una oscurense, pero él mismo está dispuesto a demostrar que la maestría de la arena es más de lo que muchos creen y cómo puede utilizarse. Aunque al principio te suelte un poco de golpe y porrazo en los desiertos del lado diurno de Taldain, con habitantes del lado nocturno metidos en el fregado (lo cual te deja dos sociedades a las que pillarle el truco y más incluso ya que en cada lado de este extraño planeta hay diversos países y religiones) pronto la trama coge las riendas del worldbuilding y este empieza a fluir.Again here we are with Sanderson and of course the talk will go to worldbuilding. Yes, he does it again. This time it's his story and idea, but an adaptation by Rik Hoskin with art by Julius M. Gopez. This is an old story which Sanderson wrote as his first ever novel. Currently it's unpublished in novel format, but this is the graphic version which came out very recently, and which I was both eager for and a little worried about. I wasn't sure how well Sanderson's story would translate to graphic medium, but it actually seems like this magic system works quite well. Sobre esta novela gráfica, aunque la he disfrutado, es en mi opinión es lo más flojo del Cosmere hasta ahora. I got this digital copy thanks to Read Now at NetGalley, but sadly the copy is not good quality -blurred and pixelated- so I think that diminesh the experience.
