A new hardcover edition of Brandon Sanderson's sci-fi novel The Sunlit Man just launched (March 5), and you can grab a copy for only $21 (was $30). Physical editions of the book were previously exclusive to Kickstarter backers, but this new publishing run is available to everyone.

The Sunlit Man is a standalone novel set in the far future of the Cosmere universe shared by many of Sanderson's other fantasy and sci-fi novels. The book follows Nomad, a world-hopping immortal trapped on the planet Canticle, where the people live in giant floating cities that are constantly on the move to outrun the sun's flesh-melting temperatures.

The Sunlit Man is the fourth and final book in Sanderson's Secret Projects series. Back in 2022, Sanderson's publishing house Dragonsteel Entertainment held a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign to fund four secret Sanderson novels--aka the Secret Projects series--that would be released throughout 2023. The Sunlit Man and the other three novels were previously available to everyone in ebook format, but this new hardcover edition marks the first time non-backers can buy physical versions of the book.


The other three Secret Projects books--Tress of the Emerald Sea, The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, and Yumi and the Nightmare Painter--are also available in hardcover for 30% discounts at Amazon. Paperback editions are also available for preorder.

Sanderson's Cosmere universe is also home to his two most popular series: Mistborn and The Stormlight Archive. You can save on box sets for both series at Amazon. Sanderson's various young adult series are also available in box set format. You'll find links to all of the box set deals below.
