Interview #1101: Mistborn: The Well of Ascension Annotations, Entry #24

Brandon Sanderson

Marsh was a tricky one to write in this book. Everybody loves him, for some reason, and they were really happy I didn’t make him a bad guy at the end of book one. The more I put him into book two, the more readers tended to like him there as well.

However, I’ve got enough characters in this book that I couldn’t really focus on Marsh as much as I would have needed to, so I backed off on him. You’ll see some of him in the next few chapters, but then he fades into the background. Simple reasoning is that the book was long enough, even in the planning stages, that I knew I couldn’t tackle Marsh and what was going on with him. Not yet, at least.
