Hands-on Impressions of Hoid's Storybook Collection by Brandon Sanderson

Cosmere fans rejoice! The latest Brandon Sanderson Cosmere book, as a part of Hoid’s Storybook Collection, has started arriving for BackerKit backers. I had backed at the Storyteller tier when the campaign first launched and received my ebooks, PDFs, and audiobook all at once on Sept. 15. Then on Oct. 5 I received my physical books, stickers, pins, and more.

Here are my initial impressions on the latest BackerKit campaign from Dragonsteel.

The Fires of December is the third book in what Sanderson is calling Hoid’s Travails. Fans of Tress of the Emerald Sea and Yumi and the Nightmare Painter (the other two stories in Hoid’s Travails) will want to get their hands on December right away. It is a standalone Cosmere book in a sense. December, the protagonist, is on a new planet in the Cosmere with her own plot and storyline. Where it connects to the Tress and Yumi is the narrator of the book is everyone’s favorite Worldhopper, Hoid.

The presentation of the premium hardcover book is stunning. The cover features custom art with gold trim that is much prettier in person than it was in pictures. Backers will remember that there were two options for the cover art for December. I went with the close-up one, and am really happy with how it turned out. The book also contains colored text and beautiful illustrations throughout. Artist Tran Nguyen did an excellent job of bringing the story to life. The way the golds, reds, blues, and purples work together to make this world leap off the page is very well done, making this book a worthy addition to any Sandershelf collection.
