If there’s one thing we’ve learned in ten years of working with Brandon, it’s that he almost always delivers more than we’ve asked for and that he loves to surprise us.

We were awaiting the arrival of the previously-announced sequel to The Alloy of Law called Shadows of Self when he did it again, presenting us with not just one newborn novel, but twins! The surprise package was the third Wax & Wayne adventure, Bands of Mourning.

Shadows of Self, the second book in the Wax and Wayne Mistborn series, is currently scheduled to arrive on shelves and ereaders in October 2015, followed by Bands of Mourning in January 2016.

So I worked on the outline for the Wax and Wayne sequence to get myself back into the world. In doing so, I got excited about #6. So I started working on that one, and wrote the whole thing as a kind of "Warm up." Once done, I was back into the world. That made it easy to jump back to book five and finish off that one, which I was now very excited about doing. So...yeah. I kind of wrote a book as a warm up to write a different book. My process can be crazy sometimes, but it really worked. So, there will be a total of FOUR Wax and Wayne era Mistborn novels. Alloy of Law, plus a Trilogy I plotted after finishing it.
