The first scene of Perfect State is set on a flying platform reminiscent of the 'floating islands' of the Light Eyes of the 'Stormlight Archives' world. It made me think this story was part of what Sanderson terms the Cosmere, the universe that links most of his major works, including Elantris and the Mistborn and Stormlight books.

(Elantris #1)
Elantris was the capital of Arelon: gigantic, beautiful, literally radiant, filled with benevolent beings who used their powerful magical abilities for the benefit of all. Yet each of these demigods was once an ordinary person until touched by the mysterious transforming power of the Shaod. Ten years ago, without warning, the magic failed. Elantrians became wizened, leper-...more

To be fair, I was warned going in that this was Sanderson’s first novel. Maybe because of this it is not his best. Also, I should not judge everything by this book and, as a result, not want to read more of his books. So, my review of this book may be a little harsh, but there is no reason to lose hope . . .

Re-discovering Brandon Sanderson was one of my best decisions this year.
Elantris is undoubtedly a wonderful debut, paving the path for marvelous fantasy adventures. And even though it's probably Sanderson's weakest work, you can't help but feel awed before his ingenuity and the masterful way he navigates politics and intrigue! In case it is not clear, I plead fangirl!

I really enjoyed this book a lot. It's very different from how Sanderson builds up his stories in later novels (the plot took off on page two, but I'm used to him spending some time building his characters and worlds before expecting us to run next to them). The first half was pretty difficult for me to connect to and I thought I'd be rating this lower, but the second half was a RIDE and I couldn't stop reading.

There are three main characters:
Raoden, prince of Arelon, was loved by all, including the princess he'd never met.

I confess myself disappointed with Mr Sanderson. For the first time ever. And I feel bad about it.

Because I seriously doubt I'd be picking up his other books anytime soon after finishing Elantris.

If I were rating Elantris purely on the world building and magic system, then it'd be 5+ stars.
However..however, the sum of the parts does not form a whole. With character interactions and dialogue being the weakest links, something I find puzzling since Sanderson clearly wrote such excellent dialogue for the imaginary characters in Stephen Leeds' ( Legion) head.
All in all, it was an average story in an exceptional world.
I really loved this book. The story was intriguing even if it was a bit slow at times, and the characters were incredible. Overall a pretty fantastic read!

Nice change of pace for a while, but get ready to transfer to the bore train. The book's setting was slightly removed from that of the usual spells and sword hackfest genre, but it still fell back on some lazy devices. The political system was unimaginative and the main characters' plots to manipulate it were infantile, and the reliance of chauvinism and a more or less feudal society as plot devices wore thin fast.
