Brandon Sanderson Gears Up: Mistborn Era 3 “Ghostbloods” Resumes Work in July!
Alright, Pakistani gamers and fantasy bookworms, get ready for some exciting news from the legendary Brandon Sanderson himself! If you’ve been following the whirlwind of projects he’s been involved with lately – from adapting Mistborn for Apple TV to diving into board game collaborations – you know our favourite author has been incredibly busy. But fear not, the next chapter of the Cosmere is getting back on track!
Sanderson recently shared an update confirming that he plans to pick up work on “Ghostbloods,” the highly anticipated first book in Mistborn Era 3, starting this July. Fans have been eagerly awaiting concrete news, and while he’s been deep in Hollywood commitments, he’s assured everyone that the book is very much on his mind.
“Ghostbloods” is currently slated for a December 2028 release, which means he needs to submit the final manuscript by December 2026. Good thing the first draft is already complete! What he’ll be working on this summer is the crucial revision process, polishing the story to perfection for all of us. He openly admitted that his time in Hollywood has been significant, just as he warned, but he built that time into his schedule to avoid major delays for his readers.
For those new to Sanderson’s sprawling Cosmere universe, Mistborn Era 3 promises to be a fascinating jump. While details on characters and plot are still under wraps, we do know that this trilogy will transport us to an early computer age, complete with 1980s-era technology – a truly unique blend of fantasy and retro-futurism! And if that wasn’t enough to get you hyped, Sanderson already has plans for a Mistborn Era 4, which he envisions as a full-blown space opera!
Despite his packed schedule, Sanderson is confident in his timeline. He’s already looking ahead, confirming that he needs to start writing the second book in this new trilogy by next year to meet its deadlines. So, while 2028 might feel a bit far off, rest assured that the gears are turning steadily.
And speaking of other projects, Sanderson isn’t just focused on books and screenplays. He’s also launching a new board game collaboration with Brotherwise this week, called “Shards of Creation.” He’s mentioned wanting to create games that even non-gamers can easily pick up and enjoy, which is pretty cool. If you’re into tabletop adventures set in the Cosmere, keep an eye out for pre-orders starting this Friday, May 22nd.
It’s clear Brandon Sanderson is a creative powerhouse, constantly delivering across multiple mediums. We at PakGamersHub are just as excited as you are to see “Ghostbloods” take shape and to dive into the next era of Mistborn!
