It's probably the series that this subreddit would have the most fun reading. From Hell with Love is the first one, and it's permafree for kindle.
I haven't had any feedback on the new version, yet, so I'd appreciate it if you wanted to take a look. I actually had a reader tell me that they started the free sample and then stopped reading Sanderson so they could finish out that series (and the other trilogy, too). Not gonna lie, that was a good day.
I hate self-promoting these days, but I actually think you'll enjoy From Hell with Love. It's the first title in my apocalyptic trilogy and it's a mix of Darksiders and Assassin's Creed, even down to a split narrative where half of it takes place in medieval Florence. The other half is set in Hell and all about stopping an assassin from killing the Devil, which is where most of the fantasy elements come in.
You'll have to wait until we publish my next four before I have anything contemporary to tie into it, but at least three of them should be out by the end of the year.

Hey, Brendan, wanted to say right away that the Doomstar Requiem was one of the best things I’ve ever experienced, and, personally, makes you one of the Greats by itself. From the music to the climax of the Metalocalypse universe, I was enthralled during my first viewing and only listened to the album for weeks afterwards. I’ve been watching your stuff since Home Movies, and I’ve been looking forward to Galaktikon II ever since I heard about it. After listening to it all morning, I’m definitely pleased with the next direction.
All prostration aside, I have a couple questions for you. Since Metalocalypse couldn’t really finish like you wanted, I’m sure you have a bunch of ideas that you had to give up on. Is there any plotline from that universe you’d ever resurrect somewhere else? For example, if you could, would you want to do make a Galaktikon project in the style of Metalocalypse(or something more serious), or has the experience with Adult Swim kinda ruined that? As a writer, I can’t imagine how much it would hurt to leave something as massive as Metalocalypse “unfinished.”
My second big question is whether or not you would be interested in scoring a movie/series that isn’t completely yours? I would love to hear your material anywhere, but since Dethklok was a big contributor to my writing playlist for my Horseman of the Apocalypse trilogy, it’s hard to imagine some of my scenes without your music in the background. It’s a pipe dream, but when I eventually get these books on a screen, I know exactly who I’d want to turn to for the score.
Thanks, I know this post was way too long, but I’m a big fan and couldn’t help it.
