Bugs were already freaky, that's just par for the course!

I will never forgive Brandon for making a bug crab monster so adorable

Painter's world for me. It's just such a vibe, I don't know what else to say.

Going by the sample chapters, are you more excited for Secret Project Three or Secret Project Four? Or does Tress of the Emerald Sea hold your heart too tightly for either to overtake?

(I'm using the codenames here because neither Lemmy nor Kbin supports labeling posts as spoilers and so the first line may show up in feeds, but shouldn't be a problem for the comments.)

 

Note: Arcanum has a good list of all readings Brandon's done, and the 17th Shard has a good list of all samples of any of his works, so check them out if that's what you're after! The scope of this post is slightly different than either of those, as its goal is to be a list of all Brandon's unpublished books specifically without other things distracting from that aim (and admittedly also to give this instance some starter content :P).

Full Books

These are early works (mostly) from before Brandon got published that are available in their entirety.

Samples of "Prime-era" Books

These are early works from before Brandon got published that are available in bits and pieces only.

Samples of Upcoming/Potential Books

These are samples written after Brandon got published that have not themselves made it into any book as of yet. Most were simply individual test scenes, although a few have full stories attached that nonetheless haven't been released for a variety of reasons.

† marks works currently planned as part of the Cosmere.

Full Drafts of Published Works

While Brandon does readings of a chapter or two for a lot of books, there are a few whose full rough drafts have been made available.

  • White Sand: Original prose that adapted into the graphic novel. You can get it by signing up for Brandon's newsletter; once you confirm your email it will send you the latest edition, which includes the download link.
  • Warbreaker: For this book, Brandon experimented with releasing each draft as he wrote it. You can find a list of all versions on his website.
