Mistborn Wallpaper

Published Mar 26, 2009

Mistborn

First of all I want to thank Brandon Sanderson for writing these wonderful novels and allowing me the opportunity to use some of the artwork from them to create a wallpaper based on the series. If you love epic fantasy and haven’t read them yet, check them out. They are a great read and put a bit of a different twist on the genre. You can find out more about them and Brandon’s other work at brandonsanderson.com. Thanks again Brandon and keep up the good work!

For those of you who have read the Mistborn novels I hope that you understand some of the images and symbols that I used for the wallpapers. For those of you who haven’t read the books yet, well read them and then you will understand.

These wallpapers are free for non-commercial use. All images and names based on the Mistborn novels are used by express permission from Brandon Sanderson who is the copyright holder. Download and enjoy!

Every business, start-up or established, is looking for one thing: increased revenues.
