If you were fascinated by Lindon's relentless pursuit to master the sacred arts and the way Unsouled explores a detailed, rule-based system of magic, you'll be drawn into The Black Prism. Brent Weeks crafts a world where the magic of 'chromaturgy'—the ability to turn light into physical substances—has clear, inventive rules and limitations. Like Unsouled, you'll enjoy watching characters strategize and push the boundaries of what's possible within their world's magical framework.
If Lindon's journey from being considered 'unsouled' and powerless to growing into his potential resonated with you, you'll love Cradle of Sea and Soil. The protagonist, Colibrí, is born an outcast in her island community and must struggle against prejudice while developing her hidden strengths. You'll find the character growth deeply satisfying as she fights to claim her place and identity.
If you enjoyed following Lindon’s coming-of-age story—his trials, mistakes, and self-discovery—A Wizard of Earthsea will be a perfect fit. Ged’s journey from a humble village boy to a powerful wizard is rich with personal challenges, magical training, and the struggle to understand his place in the world. Like Lindon, Ged’s growth is central to the story and is both moving and rewarding.
If the rich, immersive worldbuilding in Unsouled drew you in—especially the unique cultures, magical traditions, and layered history—you’ll be enthralled by The Way of Kings. Sanderson’s Roshar is packed with fascinating societies, ancient mysteries, and a deep sense of place, making every discovery a delight for fans of complex worlds.
If you loved how Lindon's story is propelled by his clear, urgent goal to grow stronger and protect those he loves, you’ll be hooked by Sufficiently Advanced Magic. The protagonist, Corin, is driven by his mission to find his missing brother, and every trial in the magical tower tests his resolve and ingenuity. The book’s strong narrative momentum and sense of purpose will feel right at home.
