This page lists all of [[Brandon Sanderson]]'s works, written or unwritten, that have not been published. Some of these are written novels that have been "trunked", some of which have been re-written or cannibalized from. Some are ideas Brandon has talked about briefly but it is unknown if they will ever actually be written. The remainder are forthcoming works that, while unwritten, will come out eventually.
A list of those works that have been published can be found in the [[Bibliography]] article.

; [[Dragonsteel (series)|Dragonsteel series]]
: A series of books that will only be written after the Stormlight Archive is completed.{{wob ref|12313}} The number of installments has changed over time but it was most recently stated to be three books.{{wob ref|10741}}

; ''[[Aether of Night]]''
: A rewrite of Brandon's tenth novel, as various elements of the original were cannibalized for other works (such as Decay becoming Ruin). No longer is trunked.{{sots ref|2015}} Brandon has said this will be drastically different from the unpublished novel and will only retain the location in the cosmere and the magic system.{{sots ref|2017}} Brandon is still unsure when he will fit this story into the overall cosmere timeline, but it is planned to be three novels.{{sots ref|2019}}
; ''[[The Night Brigade]]''
: A novel set on [[Threnody]] has been part of Brandon's plan for the cosmere since before he was published. Originally planned to be the story of the people who fled to the [[Forests of Hell]] after the [[Evil]] destroyed their [[Homeland]]. He has recently considered changing the story to that of an expedition being sent back to the Homeland.{{sots ref|2016}} A tentative title was thought to be ''The Dust Brigade'', but in reality it was ''The Dusk Brigade''. Brandon later changed the title to ''The Night Brigade'' because a character named [[Dusk]] already exists in the cosmere.{{wob ref|15573}} It would be darker than other cosmere works{{wob ref|11224}} and have some relation to Silverlight.{{wob ref|12766}} It is not considered a core cosmere book and could be cut if Brandon does not have time to write it.{{wob ref|13784}}{{wob ref|11904}} It will feature a cosmere group that Brandon wants mentioned before the cosmere sequence ends.{{wob ref|12635}}
; ''[[The Silence Divine]]'': A novel set on [[Ashyn]] in the [[Rosharan system]], where diseases grant magical abilities.{{wob ref|8869}} At one point, it was likely to be renamed, as Brandon had recently written [[Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell|another novella with "Silence" in the title]], though it has been several years since then.{{wob ref|3369}} Unlikely to be written anytime soon, as Brandon needs to research more about immunology and has limited time.{{wob ref|12797}} While being mentioned as a Novella for the longest time, this has most recently been stated to be planned as a Novel.{{sots ref|2022}}
; Untitled [[Silverlight]] story
: A novella set in [[Silverlight]].{{sots ref|2016}} Would need to follow the Threnody novel, if it is written.{{wob ref|12766}}
; Unannounced novel
: An unannounced cosmere novel projected at 200k-300k words, set in the future of the cosmere. It is distinct from the 2023 Kickstarter secret projects, and is "perhaps more beastly and epic" than his other side projects.{{wob ref|15472}}{{wob ref|14388}}

== Potential Works ==
These are projects that Brandon has mentioned as possibilities but there are no firm plans in place.
===Cosmere Works===
;Arcanum Unbounded 2: Will contain more short stories and the [[Nalthis]] essay. However, many of the short stories that could have been published in an Arcanum Unbounded 2 became full-length Secret Project novels.{{wob ref|16497}}{{wob ref|15391}}
; Cosmere world guide: A potential illustrated companion for the cosmere novels. It would not happen before ''Stormlight 5''. It has not progressed past the idea stage because Brandon has concerns about the amount of effort that would be needed in order to meet fan expectations for the artwork.{{wob ref|14125}} In 2011, Brandon stated that he would do ''Mistborn'' and ''The Stormlight Archive'' reference books first.{{wob ref|4912}}
; ''[[Mistborn]]''
:; 1940's ''Mistborn''
:: Potentially more short adventures set before Era 3.{{sots ref|2014}} Could be a novella.{{wob ref|13556}}
:; Near-future Cyberpunk ''Mistborn''
:: Potentially more adventures set between Era 3 and 4.{{wob ref|993}} It is not a cornerstone of the overall ''Mistborn'' story, and could be done as a novella or not at all.{{wob ref|13556}}{{wob ref|14382}}
:; ''Mistborn: Secret History 2
:: Brandon has mentioned a potential sequel to ''[[Secret History]]'' on several occasions, potentially including flashbacks and additional backstory related to both Era 1 and Era 2.{{wob ref|10740}}{{wob ref|14897}} However, he has explicitly stated that it is a low priority compared to other cosmere works and may never be written,{{wob ref|12102}}{{wob ref|13135}} especially since the first ''Secret History'' took nearly a decade to write and Brandon considers this type of side project "self-indulgent". [[Kelsier]] is planned to be involved in ''Mistborn'' Era 3, which increases the likelihood of another ''Secret History'' when Brandon gets to that point.{{wob ref|9602}}
:; Parallel ''Mistborn'' novel from Hoid's perspective
:: Like ''Back to the Future Part II''.{{wob ref|1220}} Last mentioned as of 2018.{{wob ref|12277}}
; ''[[White Sand]]''
:; Second Set of ''White Sand'' graphic novels: These would be set on the Darkside of Taldain, and would also be a trilogy. They would not, however, be prose.{{wob ref|12934}}
; ''Kingmaker'': a young adult novel set on [[First of the Sun]]. It would not feature Dusk.{{sots ref|2020}} Brandon [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpcdGJgVDeA read from the first draft] at the ''Cytonic'' release event in November, 2021.
; Untitled ''[[The Emperor's Soul]]'' sequel: a story set in the [[Rose Empire]] on [[Sel]].{{sots ref|2020}} Initial plans were for a story not centered around [[Wan ShaiLu]]{{wob ref|7958}} except perhaps a cameo role.{{wob ref|12240}} However, Brandon later came up with a story idea for Shai that is more of a direct sequel.{{wob ref|13070}}
; YA book set in a minor cosmere planet: It would follow one of Hoid's apprentices, set in the future of the cosmere (between era 3 and 4) stranded on a minor cosmere planet and trying to figure out their kite-based magic system.{{wob ref|12466}}{{reddit ref|Cosmere|btq5f7|ep1zvrs|text=Sanderson is working on a "non-Stormlight Cosmere novella"|date=2019-04-27}}{{sots ref|2020}}
; Mythos series: In the 2022 and 2023 State of Sandersons it was mentioned that Brandon was thinking about writing a series set on Mythos. No other information has been offered at this time.{{wob ref|16040}}{{wob ref|16432}}
; ''The Grand Apparatus'': In the 2023 State of Sanderson it was mentioned that he was planning to write a book called ''The Grand Apparatus''. No other information is known about this work.{{wob ref|16432}}
; Additional Cosmere stories by [[Isaac Stewart]]
: Brandon was originally resistant to collaborating on cosmere stories,{{wob ref|12258}} but has since noted that Isaac is the only person he would trust to work in the shared universe and do it justice.{{wob ref|14602}}{{wob ref|15391}} Isaac now has a "blank slate" to develop cosmere works.{{wob ref|15095}} The first of these potential projects is ''[[Boatload of Mummies]]'', but other ideas have been mentioned, including a story titled ''Son of Bones'' and set on [[Scadrial]]{{wob ref|15406}} (possibly on the southern continent),{{wob ref|12258}} ''The Arcanist'' featuring [[Khriss]],{{wob ref|14047}} and a story set on [[Threnody]].{{wob ref|15391}} The first draft of a ''Boatload of Mummies'' was finished as of 2022.{{wob ref|16049}}
; Additional Cosmere stories by [[Dan Wells]]
: It was announced in 2022 that Dan Wells had been appointed as VP of Narrative at Dragonsteel, part of this involves writing new stories set in the Cosmere. Brandon has stated that he is working closely on these with Dan.{{wob ref|16040}} Dan himself indicated that work has begun on his first novel which is focused upon something that has not been covered by the Cosmere, or the fantasy genre as a whole.{{wob ref|16048}}
; Cosmere picture books
: Based on cosmere folk tales such as "The Dog and the Dragon" and "The Girl who Looked Up".{{sots ref|2020}}
===Non-Cosmere
; Additional [[Cytoverse]] works
:; ''The Eyes''
:: A short story set in the [[Cytoverse]]; it is a space opera inspired by [[wikipedia:Fermi's paradox|Fermi's paradox]].{{sots ref|2016}} A draft was made available in an early Patreon campaign.{{wob ref|9139}} Brandon quickly decided that the lore was not working well and shelved it. He repurposed an idea from the story about "living" power sources into the [[taynix]].{{wob ref|15200}} A tweaked version of the story could still take place in Cytoverse continuity and Brandon has not ruled out rewriting it.{{wob ref|12197}}
; Additional [[The Reckoners]] works

; ''[[Adamant]]''
:Formerly titled ''The Lurker''.{{sots ref|2014}} Planned as a sequence of six novellas, two of which will be written by other authors. Brandon wants to wait until all four of his novellas are written before finding co-authors. Only one episode has been written, but he has had a breakthrough in some visuals and worldbuilding. The second novella could be written at any time.{{sots ref|2016}} There was some consideration of a shared universe with ''Skyward'', but this is not likely.{{wob ref|10949}} It remains in limbo due to other projects taking precedence.{{sots ref|2019}}
; ''I Hate Dragons''
: After Brandon made a short story of the same name available for free on [https://www.brandonsanderson.com/i-hate-dragons/ his website], as well as 4 chapters of a more [https://www.brandonsanderson.com/i-hate-dragons-extended-version/ fleshed-out version], he created an outline for a full book, which hasn't been further realised, yet.{{wob ref|14388}}
; ''Zeek Harbinger, Destroyer of Worlds'': Middle grade sci-fi humor, potentially a follow-up to the Alcatraz series.{{wob ref|6096}} About a young man who whenever he visits a planet, the planet blows up shortly after for various reasons (such as a nuclear catastrophe). Each book would be set on a different world and tell the story of how it blows up.{{wob ref|9948}}
; ''Mulholland Homebrew's Sinister Shop of Secret Pets'': Middle grade/YA humor, about a girl who accidentally apprentices herself to a guy who runs a fantasy pet shop.{{wob ref|9948}} First mentioned in 2012, Brandon is still interested in the story as of 2022, but it's more likely to be adapted in a different format, if at all.{{wob ref|15737}}
; Non-cosmere picture books
: Brandon is currently shopping a non-cosmere picture book. He would prefer to gain some experience in this area before publishing a cosmere picture book.{{sots ref|2020}}
:; ''The Boring Book''
== "Trunked" Works ==
