DeadFencer Posted November 23, 2016 Posted November 23, 2016 The whole time. The whole dang time. The entire time he was writing the series, Brandon knew that there would be a sixth book about how Alcatraz wasn't awful for doing the Terrible Thing. I was in middle school when I read book four. I'm in college now. I dreamed for years about reading book 5, about knowing how it all ended. Brandon waited four years, not knowing if he'd ever get the chance to pull the greatest literary gotcha I've ever had done to me. My view of the series, held the same for so long, changed instantly. Wowza. 2
king of nowhere Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Now that I think about it, at some point brandon posted a screenshot from his computer showing his "work in progress" folders. And one of those was scrubbed out of the image, and had "secret project" written on it. Shortly later, mistborn secret history came out, and everyone assumed it was the secret project. bbut reallly? If one folder had been named "secret history", there would have been no way we could deduce anything from it, no need to ccover it. Had it been alcatraz 6 all along? EDIT: I remembered about a blog post made a month ago with big alcatraz 5 spoilers, and yeah, it really was alcatraz 6! Edited November 29, 2016 by king of nowhere
