A cross-section of stories from the Cosmere

Nine pieces of short fiction bring together settings from across Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere, including the worlds of The Stormlight Archive, Mistborn, and Elantris. The collection ranges from novellas such as “Edgedancer” and “The Emperor’s Soul” to shorter stories, a serial-style Mistborn piece, and an excerpt from the graphic novel White Sand. Essays and illustrations add material about the planetary systems behind the stories, giving the volume a wider frame than fiction alone. Its contents span several corners of the shared universe, so it can be approached as a varied collection rather than a single continuous narrative.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Cosmere readers interested in stories from several series and worlds in one volume
  • Readers seeking a mix of novellas, short stories, essays, and illustrations
  • Those interested in the settings of The Stormlight Archive, Mistborn, and Elantris

Book overview

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson―creator of The Stormlight Archive, the Mistborn Saga, and countless bestselling works of science fiction and fantasy―this iconic short fiction collection features stories set across the Cosmere universe.

The Stormlight Archive novella "Edgedancer" is the crown jewel of Arcanum Unbounded: The Cosmere Collection, which includes novellas and short stories from the worlds of the Stormlight Archive, the Mistborn Saga, Elantris, and more.

This collection includes:

"The Hope of Elantris" (Elantris)
"The Eleventh Metal" (Mistborn)
"The Emperor's Soul" (Elantris)
"Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania, Episodes 28 through 30" (Mistborn)
"White Sand" (excerpt; Taldain)
"Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell" (Threnody)
"Sixth of Dusk" (First of the Sun)
"Mistborn: Secret History" (Mistborn)
"Edgedancer" (The Stormlight Archive)

These nine wonderful works, published elsewhere individually, convey the expanse of the Cosmere and tell exciting tales of adventure Sanderson fans have come to expect, including the Hugo Award-winning novella "The Emperor's Soul" and an excerpt from the graphic novel "White Sand."

Finally, this collection includes essays and illustrations for the various planetary systems in which the stories are set.
