Chaos he/him Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I had thought this was posted in Around the Cosmere, but apparently it fell through the cracks. The good people at Suvudu posted a recording of Brandon Sanderson's Seattle signing: http://sf-fantasy.suvudu.com/2011/11/event-video-brandon-sanderson-qa.html There was some news on the publication schedule. After Stormlight 2, he'll do an Alloy sequel. He plotted three (maybe four) books with Wax and Wayne. So it'd look like: Stormlight 2 Alloy 2 Stormlight 3 Alloy 3 etc. He did say that he wants to do an Elantris sequel, so instead of an Alloy book he will probably do that for a year. You may have heard that Stormlight Archive, while being a ten book series, is actually two five-book arcs, and Brandon revealed (first time I'm hearing it, at least), each book's character focus: 1. Kaladin 2. Shallan 3. Szeth 4. Navanni 5. Dalinar This kind of surprised me; I wasn't expecting Navanni to be book four. This is awesome. The best part was when he said in between the two five book arcs of Stormlight, he'd write the second Mistborn trilogy.
Nemuri he/him Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I was surprised by Navanni too. Thought it would have been Jasnah, though I guess parts of the Navanni flashbacks will have Jasnah in them.
Arcanist Lupus he/him Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Note that this is only the probable order for the character focuses. It's not set in stone yet (but is highly likely). Legion is hilarious. I can't wait for the novella! (and I hope the tv deal comes through too - this is perfect for television)
Kurkistan he/him Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Thanks for posting. I hadn't known about this.
dhalagirl she/her Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 If the camera had panned 90 degrees to the left you would've seen me. If it had panned down, you would've seen the back of Peter Orullian's head. It was a very cool event. Although, it was a little weird being in a church. I felt like I should be offering up a prayer to Harmony, or somebody. 2
Alliare she/her Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 I also expected Jasnah instead of Navani. But maybe we know too little about Navani, it'll be better to focus on her. I'm eager to see more about Kaladin, though, I love that character. And I'd also like to see how Dalinar's second son develops.
Chaos he/him Posted December 7, 2011 Author Posted December 7, 2011 I'm guessing Jasnah will get a book in the second five book arc, when (I presume) people start fighting Odium and Voidbringers directly.
discipleofhoid he/him Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 I'm guessing Jasnah will get a book in the second five book arc, when (I presume) people start fighting Odium and Voidbringers directly. I would guess that a Jasnah viewpoint would contain to much information about the radiants and their powers for a first arc book.
dhalagirl she/her Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 How many altars were there? Sadly, only one.
Arcanist Lupus he/him Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 Sadly, only one. Was it made out of outdated encyclopedias? 4
fyodor Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 Interesting-I had been under the impression that Alloy of Law was just going to be a standalone between the first and second Mistborn trilogies. I had thought this was posted in Around the Cosmere, but apparently it fell through the cracks.

Chaos he/him Posted December 8, 2011 Author Posted December 8, 2011 Nope! Thankfully. I'd be really annoyed if there weren't more Wax and Wayne books, with that open-ended ending.
dhalagirl she/her Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 Was it made out of outdated encyclopedias? It didn't appear to be, but the Librarians might have cleverly covered it with a wood facade. I didn't think to check (a five hour drive will do that to you...or maybe it was something in the cookies...hmm). However, there was a really sweet carved chair that they brought out for Brandon to sit on during the signing. It was very throne-like.
ProfessorMLyon he/him Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 After Stormlight 2, he'll do an Alloy sequel. He plotted three (maybe four) books with Wax and Wayne. Awesome! I loved Wax and Wayne, and thought Alloy of Law was much too short! There is something to be said about gunsligers with magic! 2
Darebear Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Also towards the end I was standing near the signing table and someone asked about the modern mistborn trilogy's plot. Brandon said that it would have an Allomancer SWAT Team dealing with a mistborn and having to figure out what they are fighting due to Mistborn disappearing into myth and religion. And there was nothing unusual in the cookies that you need to know about.
Ironeyes Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Awesome! I loved Wax and Wayne, and thought Alloy of Law was much too short! There is something to be said about gunsligers with magic! I agree! Have a 1+! So sad I can't read it yet (I haven't bought it yet and nobody I know has).
dhalagirl she/her Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Dude! That needs to be rectified soon. Sell an organ if you have to. 1
Ironeyes Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I have a gift card, just haven't had time to hit a bookstore. I probably will soon, now that finals are over.
LevenThumps Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the list. Now I know what to look forward to in his later works. I didn't know about the Alloy sequels or the second mistborn trilogy, so this really brightens my day. I have a gift card, just haven't had time to hit a bookstore. I probably will soon, now that finals are over. You need to read it as soon as you can. It's worth it (although every work by Brandon Sanderson is worth it). Also towards the end I was standing near the signing table and someone asked about the modern mistborn trilogy's plot. Brandon said that it would have an Allomancer SWAT Team dealing with a mistborn and having to figure out what they are fighting due to Mistborn disappearing into myth and religion. And there was nothing unusual in the cookies that you need to know about. That plot sounds pretty cool, I can't wait for the trilogy. ***Admin Note: Please don't post multiple times in a row. Rather edit a post to add additional information. Thanks! --fRR Edited March 28, 2012 by firstRainbowRose multiple posts
