Mistborn is a fantasy series by Brandon Sanderson.
It is most well known as a trilogy, but there will be additional installments.
Era 1: The First Trilogy
The first Mistborn trilogy chronicles the efforts of a group of Allomancers who attempt to overthrow a dystopian empire and establish themselves in a world covered by ash.
The three books of the trilogy are:
- Mistborn: The Final Empire--Commonly referred to simply as "Mistborn"
- The Well of Ascension
- The Hero of Ages
Era 2: Mistborn Adventures
Set about 300 years after the first trilogy, the Mistborn Adventures are about the exploits of Waxillium Ladrian, a "wild-west Deputy" forced to move into the big city, and starts investigating kidnappings and robberies.
The Alloy of Law was initially conceived as one of several short stories Brandon wanted to set between the first and second main trilogies that eventually grew into a full novel, and then a series.[citation needed] Mistborn Adventures is a single four book series, however The Alloy of Law stands more-or-less alone while the rest were plotted together like a trilogy.[3]
Brandon has also said that he may do some more works before the second trilogy, set in a 1940's society.[3]
Second Mistborn Trilogy
Set soon after the Mistborn Adventures, the second trilogy is about a Mistborn serial killer.[4] It supposedly introduces the Southern Peoples of Scadrial.[5]
It will be set in a 1980's society. It will probably be released after any Elantris sequels.[3] Peter has suggested that it is planed for 2020's release.[6]
It will contain a female lead. (From Brandon Sanderson's AMA 3/12/2015)
Third Mistborn Trilogy
The third trilogy is going to be a space-opera with Allomancy powered faster-than-light technology.[7] Hoid will be a main character in this trilogy.[8]
There may be two more currently untitled cosmere series written before this trilogy.[3]
