7/30/2023 0 Comments Stormlight archive book 5It was ALSO at JordcanCon 2021 that Sanderson gave one of the biggest teases about about potential adaptations in quite some time: saying that if we "read in between the lines" we might be able to put some things together even though he couldn't announce anything official. It's the "end of a sequence," as he called it, and he needs to make sure that sequence sticks the landing.īrandon went a step further though to clarify why Stormlight 5 has been a bit slow-going, and it's not primarily due to the Secret Projects or any other writing projects: it's movie and television stuff. Brandon stressed at JordanCon 2021 that he will allow Stormlight 5's schedule to slide back if necessary. All of that to say, it would seem that he's roughly 6 months behind schedule as it stands, and that could slip a bit further. Keep in mind Brandon will still have to work on revisions for Secret Project 4 and Defiant at some point as well. Well, we're currently a little over halfway through the year and the first draft status bar is sitting at a mere 7%, with a few more weeks of Secret Project 3 revisions still on his plate first. Sanderson's plan was to start Stormlight 5 at the beginning of this year to hit the November 2023 release. Brandon's fastest turnaround time on a Stormlight book was Rhythm of War, which he started writing in early 2019 and was able to finish by the end of that year. With so much content coming out, I'm more than grateful that we're getting a bit of extra time so that we can properly digest it all. While some people might be bummed by this, I have to say that I'm honestly a bit relieved. Progress on Stormlight 5 has been slow of course, and Brandon finally confirmed what we all expected: the Stormlight 5 release just isn't going to happen in 2023 after all. I don't know about you, but I'm already sweating thinking about how much work it will be just to keep up! Which, if you've give a moment of thought for Brandon's release schedule for 2023, is a darn good question! We've got four Secret Project books, Defiant (Skyward 4), AND supposedly Stormlight Archive 5? Not to mention the Words of Radiance leatherbounds and several other smaller projects that might be coming along. Though the reason why certainly isn't quite what we expected.īrandon Sanderson did a Reddit AMA (ask me anything) with subreddit r/books last week, and u/VeryNiceName16 asked about the plan for the "Stormlight 4.5 novella" (tentatively titled Horneater) amid everything else going on in 2023. We suspected that this would be the case for some time now, but it has finally be confirmed: Stormlight 5 won't be coming until 2024.
