These include the Elantris series, the Mistborn series, the Warbreaker series, the Stormlight Archive books, and his short stories as well. Most of the author’s adult fiction books are part of the Brandon Sanderson Cosmere world. Reading the Brandon Sanderson books in order brings readers countless hours of joy and an escape in the wonderful words the author has created over the years. The Cosmere books are all incredible reads and are all worth taking the time to check out.Last Updated on NovemBrandon Sanderson is a prolific contemporary fantasy author who brought us gems like the Mistborn series, the Stormlight Archive, and also worked on The Wheel of Time series after Robert Jordan passed away. It is absolutely worth purchasing for the value it brings to the Cosmere as a whole. Many of these short stories and novellas can all be found in Brandon Sanderson’s Arcanum Unbounded. Who knows, it might start you on your Cosmere journey as it did me. It is also one of the best series to start with if you are new to epic fantasy books as a whole. If you can only read one book on this list, go ahead and pick up this one. This is the best that the Stormlight Archive has to offer so far and the best book in the Cosmere as a whole. Every character is expanded upon from the first book, and every plot is compelling, with some truly jaw-dropping moments.
Plain and simple, this book is a masterpiece. This book had it all, from epic battles to amazing one-liners that still, to this day, I get giddy thinking about. #22 ALLOMANCER JAK AND THE PITS OF ELTANIAĬoming in at #1 is the second book in the Stormlight Archive, Words of Radiance. RELATED: Take the Stormlight Archive Knights Radiant Quiz and find out which order you belong to! So without further ado, this is ranking the Cosmere books by Brandon Sanderson in order from worst to best. Your own list may be completely different than my own, and I would love to hear from you in the comments on what I got wrong in my list, or what you believe to be the correct order! Of course, this list is simply my own opinion. Though it was more difficult to create than I originally thought it would be, I believe I have completed my list of Cosmere books in order from best to worst. You also won’t see some of his other books either (sorry Skyward fans!).
Therefore, you won’t see any of the Wheel of Time novels, like The Gathering Storm, Towers of Midnight, or A Memory of Light.
Only books that have some Cosmere relation will be added to the list. RELATED: Best Cosmere Reading Order! The Rules But which would rank in the top half, and which would rank in the lower half for overall quality? As there are so many books that comprise the Cosmere universe as a whole, inevitably, some will be better than others. His most recent book in the Cosmere, Rhythm of War, released a few months ago to high praise from both critics and readers alike. Without question, Sanderson’s greatest writing achievement would come in the form of his Cosmere universe.Ĭomprised of a staggering list of 22 books and novellas (so far) that are all connected in some way, the Cosmere is undoubtedly an incredible piece of fiction that Sanderson should be praised for accomplishing. However, Brandon Sanderson is no ordinary writer of fantasy novels. For a normal author, simply completing the last three novels of an already established and beloved series, like the Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan, would have been an incredible achievement on its own. Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere Universe drawn by Jesse_Martin_īrandon Sanderson’s career has been nothing short of spectacular.
