Brandon Sanderson’s Mistborn and Stormlight Archive Series

If you’ve thought about exploring Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere universe, box sets featuring the first three novels in The Stormlight Archive and Mistborn provide a lot of reading material for cheap. Unsure which one to start with? Mistborn is a fantasy series that’s a bit more grounded and offers a more focused, character-driven story arc. Stormlight is a sprawling high fantasy epic with many intertwining storylines and a staggering scope. The fifth book in The Stormlight Archive series, Wind and Truth, released in December. Four of the five Stormlight Archive hardcovers, including Wind and Truth, are featured in the B1G1 50% off sale.

Notably, the trade paperback box sets of the first two Mistborn trilogies are up for grabs for roughly the same price. If you bought The Mistborn Trilogy (Books 1-3) and Wax and Wayne (Books 4-6), you’d only pay roughly $69 for six books. The seventh novel in the series, The Lost Metal, is also featured in the sale. Alternatively, you could get the first three books in both of Sanderson’s best-selling series set in the Cosmere for $36.79 total.

George R.R. Martin’s ASOIAF & Patrick Rothfuss’ Kingkiller Chronicle

Speaking of wildly popular fantasy series, a bunch of books in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice & Fire series are eligible for B1G1 50% off. Notably, you can pick up the attractive leatherette pocket set–similar to The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit set–for $41. The mass market paperback box set is available for $28. Both sets contain the five novels in the series that GRRM has released so far–though who knows if The Winds of Winter will ever actually make it to store shelves.

A Song of Ice and Fire Box Sets

• A Game of Thrones Leatherbound (5 Books) — $41 ($85) | B1G1 50% off
• A Game of Thrones Mass Market Paperback (5 Books) — $27.83 ($50) | B1G1 50% off

A Song of Ice and Fire Trade Paperbacks

• A Game of Thrones — $11.44 ($20)
• A Clash of Kings — $11 ($22)
• A Storm of Swords — $11 ($22)
• A Feast for Crows — $10 ($22) | Not eligible, but the mass market paperback is.
• A Dance with Dragons — $14 ($22)

More GRRM B1G1 50% off Books

• Fire & Blood (Hardcover) — $16.58 ($35)
• A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (Hardcover) — $17 ($30)
• The World of Ice & Fire (Hardcover) — $28.31 ($60)

A Dance of Dragons was published way back in 2011, mere months after The Wise Man’s Fear, the second novel in The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss. Unfortunately, Rothfuss fans have been waiting just as long for The Doors of Stone, which is supposed to complete the initial trilogy before moving onto the next trilogy. Since then, Rothfuss has published two Kingkiller Chronicle novellas, the most recent of which, The Narrow Road Between Desires, released in 2023. Both of the novellas are B1G1 50% off in hardcover format. But much like The Winds of Winter, no one knows when, or even if, the series will even continue.

All that said, both series is worth reading, even if they never wind up receiving proper conclusions. The Name of the Wind, Rothfuss’ debut novel, remains one of the most popular fantasy debuts of the century and all four of his books are satisfying on their own merits. Meanwhile, with Martin, you also have supplementary texts that are interesting and fun, including Fire & Blood, the basis for HBO’s House of the Dragon series.

Patrick Rothfuss – The Kingkiller Chronicle

• The Name of the Wind: 10th Anniversary Deluxe Edition (Hardcover) — $20.87 ($45)
• The Name of the Wind (Paperback) — $7 ($22)
