Are any of the Cosmere series finished and ready for an adaptation? Or are we looking at a Game of Thrones situation here?
Mistborn era 1 and 2 are ready to go. Stormlight Archive is close to wrapping up its first big story arc with its 5th book coming soon. Elantris, Warbreaker, Arcanum Unbound, Yumi and the Nightmare Painter, Tress and the Emerald Sea, and Isles of the Emberdark would make a good miniseries each. He has plenty of material to adapt and they all range from good to outstanding.
Stormlight book 5 has been out for a while now.
Oh you're right I forgot that fact and already read it! Sanderson is a writing machine.
Book 5 of stormlight archives came out in 2024.
Brandon Sanderson had an assembly line of readers and editors to help him keep pushing out content at a ridiculous pace. I would not compare him to GRRM.
Also he treats writing as a job. I respect the hell out of his output and his willingness to explain how he does it (outline then 3 drafts, with a daily schedule that includes a few hours of writing on weekdays)
