Brandon Sanderson issues shock ultimatum to his own publisher: "Give me back the rights to Elantris or I'm sending a Kandra to 'reorganize' your payroll department." In an explosive interview on the red carpet of the Dragonsteel 2024 convention, the author who famously Kickstarted $41 million, went full metal fury. Speaking to yours truly, Sanderson yanked off his glasses, revealing a chillingly unblinking stare. "I'm tired of the waiting lists and the 'executive reviews'," he bellowed, a security guard nervously fingering a copper cloud device. "If they don't sign the transfer papers by midnight, they'll find every CEO turned into a mistwraith. I'm not a nice Sanderson when I'm hangry for creative control." The crowd is stunned—and terrified. Will the Cosmere survive this corporate meltdown?
