Fantasy novelist Brandon Sanderson has landed a book deal to publish his first YA series with Delacorte Press. The series will be called Steelheart, and the first book arrives in the fall of 2013.
In January, Sanderson will publish a A Memory of Light with Tor Books, the final book in The Wheel of Time series–concluding the epic fantasy created by the late Robert Jordan.
After Jordan died in 2007, novelist Brandon Sanderson (pictured) used his notes to write the conclusion to the series, publishing The Gathering Storm in 2009 and Towers of Midnight in 2010.
