Besides, once ultrawealthy morons realised they had a way to live forever—limited resources be damned—there was only ever going to be one genuinely practical deterrent.So, sure, I have to deal with a ton of boring planning. Inconvenient hours. Some pretty awkward face-to-face interactions. And like most of us, I’m really only clocking in to try to crawl out from beneath my debts. But someone’s got to do it. Luckily, my genetic compatibilities make me really, really good at doing it.Still. This next job...I don’t know. It’s something I haven’t had to deal with in years. Kind of the opposite of my regular duties. Strange, that it got thrown my way.I’m sure it’ll all go totally fine though.About Blightfall:From Brandon Sanderson, the #1 New York Times bestselling author who redefined modern epic fantasy, and acclaimed coauthor Janci Patterson comes the explosive first installment in a thrilling new Skyward Flight trilogy, as the legendary team embarks on a perilous mission to a mysterious alien world that could change the fate of the galaxy.The special first edition of Blightfall will feature stunning sprayed edges and exclusive patterned endpapers!After decades of war against alien oppressors, the humans of the Defiant Defense Force are finally free. Yet for Arturo Mendez, leader of Skyward Flight, freedom isn’t what he thought it would be.His first postwar assignment seems simple: The DDF has found evidence of other settlements of humans who were isolated during their long war against the aliens, and Arturo and his flight of pilots are to escort a team of diplomats as they attempt to make contact. It’s an easy mission—get in, guard the diplomats, and get out.But no element of this mission turns out to be simple. Blightfall is inhospitable, surrounded by mysterious debris and covered in giant, invasive forests that have swallowed most of the planet. Upon arrival, Arturo’s team is attacked, and it quickly becomes clear that this human settlement isn’t what it appears to be.Now trapped in an unfamiliar world and unsure who to trust, Arturo and his team must find allies and uncover long-buried secrets if they hope to escape and return home. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/salt-lake-city/james-islington-janci-patterson-and-brandon-sanderson/100001995189993981 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - door_time: 2026-09-01T23:30:00Z - Duration: 3 hours - Location: Olympus Junior High School - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 27.05, max: 38.36, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Salt Lake City - **state**: UT - **country**: United States - **location**: Olympus Junior High School - **lat**: 40.66783239999999 - **long**: -111.8290049 - **full address**: Olympus Junior High School, 2217 East Murray Holladay Road, Salt Lake City, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: James Islington, Janci Patterson, & Brandon Sanderson - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/b55271c75a310b331498288f1f89bbbd7642845318040314b84c0998351ffee4-rimg-w1200-h600-dc082838-gmir.jpg?v=1786215856 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is James Islington, Janci Patterson, & Brandon Sanderson being held? - **A:** James Islington, Janci Patterson, & Brandon Sanderson takes place on Tue, 01 Sep, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Tue, 01 Sep, 2026 at 09:30 pm at Olympus Junior High School, 2217 East Murray Holladay Road, Salt Lake City, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing James Islington, Janci Patterson, & Brandon Sanderson? - **A:** James Islington, Janci Patterson, & Brandon Sanderson is organized by The King's English Bookshop. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
