Interview #944: Reddit 2013 (Non-WoT), Entry #29

As much as I know I’ll enjoy every single book listed there, I’m a bit curious what (if anything) is happening with the “modern” and “future” trilogies in the Mistborn universe. Are those still planned? Have they been put into a “not until the Cosmere is far more well-established” category?

I decided that, while doing Stormlight, I wanted to stay away from other “in-depth” series. The second Mistborn trilogy is very involved, and will require memory between books for all of the hints, plotting, and twists to make sense. (Much like the first trilogy and Stormlight.) Therefore, I am keeping to series like Wax and Wayne or Steelheart, where each book stands better on its own, and doesn’t evoke a “I have to re-read each time to catch up to the new one” mentality.

Once I finish the bottom five Stormlight books, which form a complete arc of their own, I will jump over and do the modern Mistborn cycle.
