Behind the Scenes

Following completion of The Alloy of Law Brandon plotted out three more books following the same characters to finish the story, the first of which is Shadows of Self. Brandon wrote the first third or so of Shadows of Self in 2012 between drafts of A Memory of Light to keep from being burned out. The books was then shelved until the later half of 2014. He however had difficulty re-acquainting himself with the characters and story, which is a common problem for him when he stops work on a story part-way through. To remedy this he jumped ahead and wrote the sequel, Bands of Mourning, before going back finishing Shadows of Self.[4]

Brandon has explained that the title "Shadows of Self" refers to the multiple roles a person occupies over the course of their life, as well as to the inclusion of a kandra character.[citation needed]
