The Liar of Partinel is an unpublished cosmere work by Brandon Sanderson.[1]
It is set on the world of Yolen and features a character called Midius who takes on the name of Hoid. The original plan was for it to be part of Dragonsteel, but published as if a standalone book to avoid confusion with the main Dragonsteel sequence (beginning with Dragonsteel Prime).[2]
While Sanderson has stated multiple times that he will rewrite and publish Hoid's origin story at some point, his first attempt did not feel right, and "every chapter was a chore to write."[3] He does not distribute this book because the personality of the main character "never clicked," and he does not want it to color fans' predispositions towards that character.[4]
The main character uses a variation of Lightweaving, which Brandon has also used on Roshar.
Brandon has released the first 6 chapters of the Liar of Partinel on his website here. However, he plans on rewriting it.
