Initial concept for mistborn was to show epic fantasy world live through different stages of technological progress. Initially he planned to do three trilogies, one pure epic fantasy, one set in early computer age and one in space age, but since release date gap between epic fantasy and computer age was too large, he decided to write another series, which is set in industrial revolution. And I'd expect him to write cyberpunk series between computer age and cosmoopera.
