Romance Fantasy
From the #1 Kickstarter campaign of all
time—#1 New York Times bestselling author
Brandon Sanderson adds to his Cosmere universe shared by
Mistborn and The Stormlight Archive with a new standalone
novel especially for fans of fantasy romances. Illustrated
by Aliya Chen.
There is a world. One of endless night, surrounded by an
even deeper darkness. Filled with nightmares come to life,
twisted shapes that slink to windows and ease open doors,
sliding across floors to look down on helpless faces.
There is another world. A bright world, so bright it
burns. Filled with stacked stones that call forth miracles,
raised by callused hands that tremble in their work, drained
with each stone lifted, settled, lifted again.
Between these worlds two souls connect. Collide. Entwine.
A bridge. A path.
A road to both worlds changing forever.
Yumi has spent her entire life in strict obedience,
granting her the power to summon the spirits that bestow
vital aid upon her society—but she longs for even a
single day as a normal person. Painter patrols the dark
streets dreaming of being a hero—a goal that has led
to nothing but heartache and isolation, leaving him always
on the outside looking in. In their own ways, both of them
face the world alone.
Suddenly flung together, Yumi and Painter must strive to
right the wrongs in both their lives, reconciling their past
and present while maintaining the precarious balance of each
of their worlds. If they cannot unravel the mystery of what
brought them together before it’s too late, they risk
forever losing not only the bond growing between them, but
the very worlds they’ve always struggled to protect.
Note from Brandon:
Even for a compulsive planner
like me, sometimes a story emerges like magic. Unexpected,
unprompted. You build an outline in days, craft worlds
during a compulsive daydream, and develop characters with a
burst of imagination like the brief flash of a firework.
That was Yumi and the Nightmare Painter for me.
The unanticipated story of two people who find one another.
May your dreams live as mine sometimes do.
