''The Way of Kings Prime'' is the original version of [[Creator/BrandonSanderson Brandon Sanderson's]] epic ''Literature/TheWayOfKings''. The last book he wrote before landing his first publishing deal, this book is significantly different from what originally got published as the first book of ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'': there are no spren, no Shattered Plains or bridge crews, Taln shows up at the beginning rather than the end and is a main character, and Merin (the character who eventually became Kaladin in ''The Way of Kings'') ''accepts'' the Shardblade he won rather than turning down the honor of being a Shardbearer!

[[WordOfGod Sanderson has said in the past that]] he wrote this before becoming a good enough writer to do it well, and it wasn't until after the rapid leveling-up of his writing skill forced upon him by the process of finishing Literature/TheWheelOfTime that he really had the chops to do it right, which is why ''The Way of Kings'' came out after ''The Gathering Storm.''
