The regular old-timers on this blog know that I have long been a fan of Robert Jordan's (my review of the Wheel of Time is linked there). When The Gathering Storm, Book 12, came out, I read it with bated breath, and reviewed it in detail. I read Brandon Sanderson's entire Mistborn series to understand his writing style, and it paid off when TGS was released. Now, I am loyal to both authors, independently and together.
That is why I am SO excited about Towers of Midnight - the penultimate book in the Wheel of Time series!! I have this on pre-order for my birthday.
Watch the 'Making of' this video here, including story boarding and the pitch. Aren't these live-action book trailers amazing? I can't wait to see Moraine back, and it looks like the Towers of Ghenji play a big part in the rescue - exciting!
This is classic EPIC Fantasy for those who are seriously into world-building novels.
Are you waiting for this too?
This post is all the more reason you should get this book the day it releases :)
ReplyDeleteAhh, I haven't yet made the plunge into the WoT series :) It's a pretty big commitment! I definitely want to get into it sometime...
ReplyDelete@Rohit - I am just buying into the pre-release hype, we can order the slow shipping one, Really!!
ReplyDeleteThe wait is good, and I can read on the flight back :)
@Emily - It is a big commitment, I feel the same way about GRRM's books - I'm starting in the 2nd one in his series now, but it is a bit reluctantly read.
I really need to start this series...it sounds (and looks) fantastic! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Wow... guess the time to re-read this series is approaching. :-)
ReplyDelete@Melissa - Do start, and remind me of why I began loving this so much.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually contemplating a re-read, given that so many things have changed since I began this series 12 years ago.
@Kah Woei - Want to do the re-read together? :) I know even Brandon Sanderson pushed the FINAL book out by 4 months cause he decided to re-read the series as well!!
