The long-awaited explosive climax to the first arc of the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive—the iconic epic fantasy masterpiece that has sold more than 10 million copies, from acclaimed bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, is here.

Dalinar Kholin challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar on the line. The Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare—and the sudden ascension of the crafty and ruthless Taravangian to take Odium’s place has thrown everything into disarray.

Desperate fighting continues simultaneously worldwide—Adolin in Azir, Sigzil and Venli at the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah in Thaylenah. The former assassin, Szeth, must cleanse his homeland of Shinovar from the dark influence of the Unmade. He is accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new battle of helping Szeth fight his own demons . . . and who must do the same for the insane Herald of the Almighty, Ishar.

At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain work to unravel the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram and her involvement in the enslavement of the singer race and in the ancient Knights Radiant killing their spren. And Dalinar and Navani seek an edge against Odium’s champion that can be found only in the Spiritual Realm, where memory and possibility combine in chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.

The Eye of the World: Dragonsteel Deluxe Edition 

We are honored to unveil a landmark project: Dragonsteel’s first-ever deluxe edition of The Wheel of Time. This iconic series, beloved by millions, stands as one of the most influential works in modern fantasy. With Brandon Sanderson’s legacy as its chosen finisher after Robert Jordan’s passing, the series holds a special place in our hearts.

Our leatherbound edition of The Eye of the World will be a tribute to the story that launched an epic. Designed with the discerning collector in mind, this commemorative volume is a celebration of Robert Jordan’s visionary tale and the timeless journey it began.

This project wouldn’t be possible without the collaboration of Team Jordan and Tor Publishing Group, who have entrusted us to honor the legacy of The Wheel of Time with the care and dedication it deserves. Together, we’re crafting an edition that will be a treasure for generations to come.

Throughout 2025, we invite you to embark on this quest with us as we reimagine The Eye of the World.

Beyond the Cosmere: Tailored Realities

Though Sanderson is famous for his ever-expanding, interconnected universes, he has a treasure trove of stories that take place outside of those worlds. If you’ve been following Brandon's weekly updates, you’ll know he’s been working on a non-Cosmere novella called Moment Zero. With the central piece nearing completion, we’re excited to share that Moment Zero will join a host of other stores (such as Snapshot, Perfect State, etc.) in Tailored Realities

Tailored Realities invites readers to explore a collection of stories that push the boundaries of fantasy and science fiction. Here’s what you can expect:

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson―creator of The Stormlight Archive, the Mistborn saga, and countless bestselling works of science fiction and fantasy―comes Tailored Realities, a new short fiction collection including the never-before-published novella Moment Zero.

Spanning the genres of fantasy and science fiction, this collection features stories from beyond the bounds of Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere universe. 

Along with the never-before-seen novella "Moment Zero," Tailored Realities will include “Snapshot,” “Perfect State,” “Defending Elysium” (a novella set within the world of Skyward), and five other stories that were originally published individually elsewhere—never before collected into one volume, and many never before available in print.

The collection will also include a stunning B&W illustration for each story.

Celsius 232: Sanderson Goes Global!

We’re thrilled to announce that Brandon is heading to Spain! Sanderson will be a featured guest at Celsius 232 in 2025, one of Europe’s premier speculative fiction festivals. Set in the beautiful coastal town of Avilés, this event is a celebration of fantasy, science fiction, and the incredible community of fans and creators that makes it all possible.

Brandon’s appearance at Celsius 232 is a rare opportunity for international fans to connect with him, dive into discussions about the Cosmere and beyond, and celebrate the stories we love.

Stay tuned for more details!
