The Liar of Partinel is an unpublished cosmere work by Brandon Sanderson.[1]

It is set on the world of Yolen and features a character called Midius who takes on the name of Hoid.[citation needed] The original plan was for it to be part of Dragonsteel, but published as if a standalone book to avoid confusion with the main Dragonsteel sequence (beginning with Dragonsteel Prime).[2]

While Sanderson has stated multiple times that he will rewrite and publish Hoid's origin story, his first attempt did not feel right, and that "every chapter was a chore to write."[3] He has not distributed this book because the personality of the main character "never clicked," and he does not want it to color fans' predispositions towards that character.[4]
