Elantris is set in the fictional city of Kae, which is divided into three sections: the aristocratic nobility in the Upper City, the merchants and artisans in the Middle City, and the workers and peasants in the Lower City. The novel focuses on Raoden, prince of Arelon, who is forced to live in the Lower City after he is ostracized by the other nobles.

Elantris Summary

The novel starts with the city of Elantris falling into a state of complete and utter disrepair. The once-mighty capital of Arelon is now inhabited by only the sick and the dying, as the elven population has all but disappeared.

The story then introduces us to our three main characters: Raoden, the prince of Arelon; Sarene, the princess of Teod; and Hrathen, a high priest of Fjordell. All three are caught up in the political machinations of their respective countries, but their paths converge when Raoden is exiled to Elantris.

In Elantris, Raoden begins to put together a community of outcasts, teaching them to work together and helping them to find a modicum of happiness in their lives. Sarene, meanwhile, has come to Arelon for Raoden’s wedding, only to find that he has been exiled. Hrathen, sent by the oppressive Fjordell Empire to convert Arelon to their religion, starts to have doubts about his mission.

About the Author

Brandon Sanderson (born December 19, 1975) is an American fantasy and science fiction writer. He is best known for the Cosmere universe, in which most of his adult fiction novels (most notably the Mistborn series and The Stormlight Archive) are set. He has also written stand-alone novels, such as Warbreaker and Steelheart.

Elantris

Sanderson began writing while attending Brigham Young University (BYU), where he published several short stories in magazine genre fiction. In late 2004, he completed his first published novel, Elantris, and a sequel to Elantris, The Emperor’s Soul, was published in October 2013. In 2007, he wrote two other books set in the same universe as Elantris, The Mistborn Trilogy.

Sanderson’s eighth book published in 2007, Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians, began a children’s fantasy series about a boy who discovers his family has a magical legacy. He followed this with two stand-alone books set in the universe of Mistborn: The Alloy of Law (2011) and Shadows of Self (2015). Sanderson’s works have been translated into more than 38 languages. He was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novella for The Emperor’s Soul in 2013 and won the award for Best Novelette for “The Story of Your Life” in 2016.
