Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds
Description
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes a thriller that will make you question reality.
Like Sherlock Holmes or Wednesday Addams, the best detectives always have their quirks…
A genius of unrivaled aptitude, Stephen Leeds can learn any new skill, vocation, or art in a matter of hours. To contain and make use of all of this, his mind creates hallucinatory people who Stephen calls aspects. Wherever he goes, a team of imaginary experts help him solve problems—for a price.
As the aspects start taking on lives of their own, Stephen is hired to recover a camera that can take pictures of the past. Now he finds himself in a race against time and crossing continents to discover the truth about his aspects…and the lies he tells himself.
Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds includes the novellas Legion, Legion: Skin Deep, and the finale to Stephen Leeds' story, Lies of the Beholder.
