Stones Unhallowed is the original working title for the third book in The Stormlight Archive, Brandon has also mentioned "Skybreakers" as a working title, as he feels that Stones Unhallowed is too similar to the title of Patrick Rothfuss' "Doors of Stone", which is expected to be released about the same time.[1] It is currently planned to be released mid to late 2016.[2]

Behind the Scenes

Brandon wrote a few "exploratory scenes" for "Stones Unhallowed" during the summer of 2014, however he didn't start in earnest on the book until June 2015. He plans to spend the rest of the year on it. He also plans to on screen-capture part of the writing process, as he did with Words of Radiance's Rysn interlude.[2]

The original outline called for the flashback sequence to focus on Szeth-son-son-Vallano, however Brandon has mentioned he is no longer sure if that will be the case. He plans on writing parts of the flashbacks for Szeth as well as Eshonai and Dalinar Kholin, to help him decide who can best get across the information he needs to.[2] It will also likely focus on the Order of Skybreakers.

The working title "Stones Unhallowed", like all planned titles for The Stormlight Archive is the title of an in-world book. It is likely in relation to Urithiru which Ali-daughter-Hasweth mentions was at times the Shins' only connection to the outside world due to its "stones unhallowed". [3]
