Many of my adult readers enjoy all of those books as well, and many of my YA readers enjoy my adult books, usually starting with Mistborn.Īdditionally, I have a few other novellas that are more on the thriller/sci-fi side. For young readers I also have my humorous series Alcatraz vs.

I also have three YA series: The Rithmatist (currently at one book), The Reckoners (a trilogy beginning with Steelheart), and Skyward. If you've read all of my adult fantasy novels and want to see some behind-the-scenes information, that collection is a must-read. In November 2016 all of the existing Cosmere short fiction including those novellas was released in one volume called Arcanum Unbounded: The Cosmere Collection. This includes The Stormlight Archive, both Mistborn series, Elantris, Warbreaker, and various novellas available on Amazon, including The Emperor's Soul, which won a Hugo Award in 2013. Most readers have noticed that my adult fantasy novels are in a connected universe, called the Cosmere. Also out that year was the final volume of the Stephen Leeds saga, Legion: Lies of the Beholder, which was also published in an omnibus edition, Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds, that includes all three volumes. The follow-up, Starsight, was released December 2019. November 2018 marked the release of Skyward, the first book in a new YA quartet about a girl who dreams of becoming a pilot in a dangerous world under alien attack. This series is my love letter to the epic fantasy genre, and it's the type of story I always dreamed epic fantasy could be.

In November 2020 we saw the release of Rhythm of War-the fourth massive book in the New York Times #1 bestselling Stormlight Archive series that began with The Way of Kings-and Dawnshard (book 3.5), a novella set in the same world that bridges the gaps between the main releases. I'm Brandon Sanderson, and I write stories of the fantastic: fantasy, science fiction, and thrillers.
