That’s when I took a step back and asked myself how I really wanted to approach all of this. I hadn’t originally planned to do a Mistborn sequence set in the equivalent of the early 1900s, but as I was working on Stormlight, I realized that it was going to be a long time (perhaps ten years) between The Hero of Ages and my ability to get back to the Mistborn world to do the first of the next epic arc. The magic would be the common thread here, rather than specific characters. Each series was to cover a different era in the world (Scadrial), and each was to be about different characters-starting with an epic fantasy trilogy, expanding eventually into a space opera science fiction series. I pitched Mistorn as a series of trilogies, which many of you probably already know. With Mistborn, from the start I’ve wanted a fantasy world that changed, that grew updated and modernized. An industrial revolution is in full force, and knowledge of gunpowder is no longer suppressed. The Alloy of Law jumps forward more than 300 years after the events of the original trilogy. This sale is a great opportunity to check them out, if you’ve been waffling. I know there are many of you who love the first Mistborn trilogy who haven’t yet tried out the sequels. I’ve heard people say it’s $4.99 on Kindle in some countries, and €2.99 on Google Play in others.) (At least in the US other countries may see slightly different prices. Tor announced this week that the ebook for The Alloy of Law, the first book in the second Mistborn sequence, is on sale at $2.99 for the rest of the year.
