Leeds is definitely a character with enough depth to lead an entire novel, or even a series. Maybe we'll get to read more about Stephen "Legion" Leeds in future stories or novels, if Sanderson finds the time between all his other projects. Legion has been well received by reviewers, one commenting: "This is the first time I wish a Brandon Sanderson story was longer than it ended up being. The combination of the two leads to a sinister high-tech firm specializing in advanced methods of human incarceration. Two unrelated events start it off: the disappearance of one of Stephen's many "aspects", Armando, and an unexpected cry for help from Sandra, the woman who helped him learn to live with his condition many years before.
Stephen Leeds, or 'Legion', has his final adventure. Stephen and his invisible entourage face danger at every turn whilst looking into the body theft and the man's secretive work on human cells. His investigation is hampered by the interference of a trained assassin and the dead man's younger brother. This time around Stephen is called on to help a friend after the mysterious disappearance of a body. Stephen Leeds, AKA Legion, is back with his aspects once again in tow. Helped by Monica, who is also searching for the inventor, he travels to Jerusalem to solve the problem. He must track down a missing inventor who disappeared with a camera that can take pictures of the past. However, he would rather be left alone, and that means no researchers or psychologists who want to get to the bottom of his abilities.īut then Legion receives a letter with a mysterious, impossible picture, and he can't resist traveling the world to search for answers. He is a brilliant problem solver, rich and quite good at what he does, helped by his hallucinations.
Legion tells the story of Stephen Leeds, better known as 'Legion', a man whose unique mental condition allows him to generate multitude of personae. When finished, I sent it out to my agent - and we had a Hollywood option by the end of the year.
It "came from an idea I'd been kicking around in my head for a few months, and the time seemed right to explore it on paper. Sanderson wrote the first story on the flight home from France in the summer of 2011. 2.3 Legion: Lies of the Beholder (2018).
