'''''The Liar of Partinel''''' is an unpublished [[cosmere]] work bythat [[Brandon Sanderson]] wrote in 2007.{{bwswob ref|state-of-the-sanderson|State of the Sanderson|date=Jul 24, 20137597}}
 
ItThe isstory settakes place on the world of [[Yolen]] and features a character called Midius, a [[Yolish Lightweaving|Lightweaver]] who willadopts laterthe becomename of his master, [[Hoid]]. When it was written, this book was intended to serve as a prequel to the story arc of a rewritten [[Dragonsteel Prime|''Dragonsteel'' Prime]], but would have been published as a standalone book to avoid confusion with the main Dragonsteel sequence.{{citewob ref|6096}}
 
It was Sanderson's first attempt at writing [[Hoid]]'s origin story, which he wanted to be "epic and awesome," but it just wasn't working and "every chapter was a chore to write."{{wob ref|7609}} He does not distribute this book because the personality of one character "never clicked," and he does not want it to color fans' predispositions towards that character.{{wob ref|6701}} He still intends to write this story some day, probably after the ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'' is finished, though he will rewrite it from scratch.{{wob ref|9165}}{{wob ref|12510}} The Ars Arcanum of ''[[Words of Radiance]]'' claims that Roshar's Lightweaving is the most similar to the "original Yolish variant," suggesting that this portion of the magic will stay canon.
It was originally going to be part of [[Dragonsteel]].{{twg ref|6655|129402|Brandon's answer to Peter|date=2008-10-20}}
