Brandon Sanderson

My novella Legion just came out from Subterranean Press and I’ll do a signing for it at the Missing Volume booth at noon on Saturday; it’s a modern-day story about a guy who has something like schizophrenia, but he’s a genius. He himself can’t do anything special, but all of his hallucinations are experts in their respective fields. People come to him with problems they need solved, and he brings a few of his hallucinations along with him to help solve them.

In November I have another novella, The Emperor’s Soul , coming from Tachyon Publications—it’s more like my fantasy books, in a world where trained Forgers can change reality, and the main character has to Forge a new soul for the Emperor, who was left brain-dead in an attack.

Next summer I have two YA books coming out: The Rithmatist , which is about fighting with magical chalk drawings, and Steelheart , which takes place in a world where all the superheroes are evil; the main character is a boy who knows the weakness of the Emperor of Chicago and wants to hook up with a team of assassins to hunt him down.

Then my next book that will come out after those is the sequel to The Way of Kings , which I’m working on the outline of right now.
