From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes Isles of the Emberdark, a captivating standalone story that journeys across seas and stars in a distant future of the Cosmere. The novel is beautifully illustrated by Esther Hi'ilani Candari.

Sixth of the Dusk has spent his life as a traditional trapper of Aviar-mystical birds bonded to his people-on the perilous island of Patji. One fateful night, he unwittingly thrusts his people into a desperate race to modernize before the Ones Above, alien invaders from the stars, can conquer them and exploit the Aviar. But as the race slips further from their grasp, Dusk worries that his people might lose their very identity in the struggle.

When the chance arises to sail beyond a mystical portal into the vast emberdark, Dusk takes to the waters with only a canoe, his birds, and the cunning and resilience of a Patji trapper, seeking salvation for his people.

Meanwhile, deep within the emberdark, Starling-a young dragon trapped in human form and captain of the starship Dynamic-finds herself and her crew of exiles drowning in debt and on the edge of losing their freedom. Upon discovering an ancient map to a secret portal connecting the emberdark and the physical realm, she seizes the opportunity for a lucrative find.

These unlikely allies might just hold the key to each other’s survival. As Dusk and Starling navigate perilous deals, deadly politics, and the lingering devastation of a fallen god, they embark on a journey filled with legends, lore, and the clash of galactic superpowers.

Expanding on his acclaimed novella "Sixth of the Dusk," Sanderson delivers a mythic novel brimming with adventure and cosmic intrigue.
