Stormlight Archive 4 refers to the untitled fourth book in the The Stormlight Archive.
Development
Brandon began writing Stormlight Archive 4 in January 2019, with publication planned for 2020.[1][2] The first working title was The Song of Changes, though this was eventually changed to The Rhythm of War, also a tentative title.[3][4]
Initially, the book was to feature Eshonai's flashbacks, with Venli taking center stage in the present-day timeline.[5] Eventually, Brandon began to waver on the former, wondering if Venli's flashbacks wouldn't work better for expanding on greater cosmere mysteries.[6] Ultimately, he appears to have decided on mixed flashbacks, with part set from Eshonai's perspective, while the other part set from Venli's.[7]
The present-day story is set to take place approximately one year after the events of Oathbringer.[5] While the title suggests greater focus on singer characters, the remaining protagonists, including Kaladin, Shallan, Dalinar, and Szeth, will also feature prominently.[5] The prologue will be written from the perspective of Navani.[8]
Brandon has mentioned that he is particularly looking forward to writing Wit's epilogue in Stormlight Archive 4.[9]
