Yumi and the Nightmare Painter
A Cosmere Novel
Two people from incompatible worlds start swapping bodies against their will: a sacred stacker of stones, and a man who paints away nightmares.
One of the Secret Projects, and the most tender of them. Yumi is a sacred stacker of stones in a rigidly ordered society; Painter chases nightmares through the streets of a neon city with a brush. They start swapping bodies against their will, each stuck living the other’s life badly. Sanderson borrows the shape of a body-swap romance and uses it to write about loneliness and duty.
