Subject: New Wheel of Time Novel

Posted by: trans991
Date: Oct 25 09

The newest installment of the Wheel of Time series, "The Gathering Storm," is being released Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2009. Robert Jordan passed away before completing the series and his widow asked Brian Sanderson to finish.

The series will be complete after three more books: "The Gathering Storm," "The Towers of Midnight" and "The Memory of Light."

I'm really jazzed up about finishing the series. What's your opinion?

Is that release date Worldwide or just in America?
We have been waiting patiently for this book to come out.

This household will probably have to flip a coin to see who gets to read it first :)

I've been rereading the series in anticipation of the new novel coming out. I started in July and am into the seventh novel already. It's been nice, becasuse some of the more recent novels seemed to really drag. Rereading the earlier ones reminds one of why we really liked the series. It's also a good refresher of some of the prophecies and predictions that have been made as well.

Good question--I went to http://us.macmillan.com/thegatheringstorm and clicked on the UK link and I found no information. I will assume just the U.S. I'll keep looking to confirm.

Amazon is taking preorders, they would tell you if they could ship internationally.

Just started reading it and I'm finding I've forgotten a load of stuff. Keep having to go to the back of the book. So far, really really good. You can tell its the beginning of the end so to speak.

It'll be nice to see them complete after he created such an interesting world. I'm just afraid, the final three won't be like his own style of writing.

One of my friends read the first new one. He said that it was done really well.

I am half way through and so far, I am impressed. They did an excellent job of staying with Jordan's style of writing and it really holds your interest.
