Elantris by Brandon Sanderson

The city of the gods. Elantris once stood as the symbol of all that is beautiful. A sprawling metropolis of unrivaled grandeur, it was a symbol of power and strength, built to be as imposing as it was magnificent. The only thing more glorious than the city itself was its inhabitants, Godlike beings, with silvery skin and hair of the purest, flowing white. Able to create powerful magics with a mere wave of their hands, the Elantrians were able to heal mortal wounds and create any object they desired. To be an Elantrian was to be without sickness, without pain and without want. And anyone could become a god. Through a process known as the Shaod, a normal person could go to bed one night and awake the next morning to throw away the shackles of mortality and become a being of incomparable power and grace.
