The Conclusion of the Wheel of Time



Finally, the end has come for the Wheel of Time series. After about 20 years and 14 books, the ending will be revealed (in hardcover and audiobook) in January 2013.





For those getting the book first day of release, or in hardcover period, check this out....https://www.facebook.com/events/342675935784800/ show your support or wanting to buy the book by attending.

I plan to start (re)reading the series in November, as I believe I'll be finished The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest by then. Once I finish Memory of Light, I'll dedicate a post to that book and the series, etc...This is just to let people know that the final book is a few months away, whether or not they're caught up or not. On the day of release, I'll post the series prologue here for the very very beginning.

The series is one of the best in 'traditional' fantasy. It is different from Ice and Fire. It is different from Stormlight. It is similar to Lord of the Rings...at first.

There is a very well-written tribute, spoiler free, found here....by someone who is a BIG WoT fan, and somehow got to read the final book..... http://www.dragonmount.com/index.php/News/amol/dear-robert-jordan

The Tolkien Signature Paperback Collection: Master Listing

Image
  Recently, HarperCollins has been re-issuing most of the Tolkien titles in a new paperback style. Since that a vast majority of these share ISBNs with other covers, eventually the older covers will be replaced with the new. I wanted to provide head's up for that. If ordered via Amazon UK, Blackwell's, or Waterstones, you'll very likely have the newer/Signature cover. If possible, it may be best to actually visit  the bookstore so you can see which one they actually have on their shelves.   This post is a Master Post, collecting ISBNs of the titles released in this style. I have made them into 'groups' or 'sets' for ease of reference, as well as possibly assist in purchasing them, if one were to get more than one book at once. Over the course of time, this post will get updated. Once a new title comes to this format, I'll do a separate blog post focusing on that title; and provide it's ISBN, cover art, and description. Enough of these have come out t...

An Update

So I bet you're wondering how The Saga of Kalvel is coming.  It's going well, but slow. I'm not putting into as much time writing the series as I'd like. It's still being thought of in my head, and I'm only able to get to it part time, but I'm still planning and writing at the same time. This weekend I'm hoping to binge through some.  I'm working on the third chapter for one character, and would like to start the first chapter for another character. I begun as early as Dec. 2011, and my deadline is August of 2016, but so far I have approx about 40 completed manuscript pages that I'm thinking of going back to until the first draft is completely done.  Now. That's manuscript pages.  If I were total everything I'd ever written about Kalvel, it would be closer to around 100 (give or takr about 15 either direction, some things are in various states.) I've said before and again that the most difficult vo...
