About this listen

Welcome to New York Times and Sunday Times best seller Brandon Sanderson's first collection of short fiction.

These wonderful works, originally published individually, have been collected for the first time and convey the true expanse of the Cosmere. Telling the exciting tales of adventure Sanderson fans have come to expect, Arcanum Unbounded includes the Hugo Award-winning novella The Emperor's Soul and the never-before-published Stormlight Archive novella Edgedancer.

The collection includes nine works in all:

  • Edgedancer (Stormlight Archive)
  • 'The Hope of Elantris' (Elantris)
  • 'The Eleventh Metal' (Mistborn)
  • The Emperor's Soul (Elantris)
  • 'Allomancer Jak and the Pits of Eltania' (excerpt, Mistborn)
  • 'Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell' (Threnody)
  • 'Sixth of Dusk' (First of the Sun)
  • 'Mistborn: Secret History' (Mistborn)

This superb collection also includes essays which offer insight into the numerous worlds in which the stories are set.

Great stories! Definitely builds on the Cosmere.

Wish the different stories were easily accessible and labelled somehow, looking for the title being updated

Different and super enjoyable

These short novels helped me realise how much I still need to learn about the Cosmere. The performers are absolutely great, and the stories are fantastic as always.

Wow

This collection of Brandon Sandersons long short fictions is phenomenal. Sixth of the Dusk left me reflective on my own life and my animals lives, Edgedancer was an amazing story about Lift who I was looking forward to hearing more about after oathbringer. You will enjoy every story in this collection.
