Towers Dominic Send a noteboard - 19/09/2009 05:39:53 AM
So, what do you think of the title? And what do you think it refers to?!


ok so my guess is it will be based on the fact that this book will focus on all the different towers... I think with gathering storms its gonna be a book of mostly tying up things **spoiler like what we see happen to Masema in the prologue....** and setting the framework for the second book which should contain the major events I think many of us agree are coming... Saving Moiraine from the tower, dealing with both the white and black towers, dealing with the seanchan, which can refer directly to the towers of midnight, **spoiler Moridin's fortress is described as a black tower in the prologue....** I mean damn thats alot of towers that major events need to happen in... Gathering storms can be a book initself seting all those major events up and towers of midnight is getting all those things wrapped up so we can go full steam in to Tarmon Gaidon in a memory of light... midnight besides again the obvious seanchan tie, being the the middle of the night, the darkest time before the dawn...

Just thinking outloud...

Does "Towers of Midnight" refer to the Seanchan fortress? Dodge - 19/09/2009 01:24:56 AM 2398 Views
Almost definitely. 13 towers in the complex. *NM* Werthead - 19/09/2009 01:35:49 AM 1007 Views

It's the place in Seanchan where the a'dam was first used. Werthead - 19/09/2009 03:46:46 AM 1771 Views
It would be nice place for Seeker Morr to torture Demandred, IMHO posing as General Galgan *NM* Curie - 20/09/2009 09:57:11 AM 972 Views
Yes, there seem to be quite a few towers in this series, huh? *NM* Fantasy - 20/09/2009 11:16:27 PM 724 Views
A series of towers, one might say. *NM* fionwe1987 - 20/09/2009 11:39:56 PM 713 Views

I agree. This was the 1st thing I thought of when I saw this. Cannoli - 19/09/2009 05:56:50 AM 1543 Views
Doesn't have to be a major arc though Rurouni_Kenshin - 19/09/2009 06:37:55 AM 1364 Views
I can't find the relevant comment from RJ, but... RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:40:03 PM 1481 Views
Thanks, I thought I remembered RJ saying as much. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:25:20 PM 679 Views
But RJ can change his mind right? redhand - 19/09/2009 01:38:54 PM 1354 Views
Of course. It would be nice to know where/when the comment was made. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 01:53:35 PM 821 Views
I ask that you put spoilers in your title, whether they're in white or not. Thank you. *NM* Palatine - 19/09/2009 07:16:20 PM 699 Views
I think AmoL is one the better titles ever to grace a fantasy novel! Dragonsworn - 19/09/2009 11:46:19 AM 1414 Views

Typical title... Etzel - 19/09/2009 06:03:48 PM 1427 Views
I think "Dance of Lightnings" is way too reminiscent of GRMM *NM* NaClH2O - 19/09/2009 08:26:12 PM 841 Views
He'd probably go with "Lance of Lightning". *NM* TaskmasterJack - 19/09/2009 09:42:11 PM 707 Views
That sorta sounds like a...er...adult cinematic feature title NaClH2O - 20/09/2009 02:59:51 AM 1238 Views
Perfect for Martin, then. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 21/09/2009 01:33:45 AM 598 Views

But a Crown of Swords came before a Storm of Swords. *NM* fionwe1987 - 20/09/2009 05:35:34 PM 677 Views
Hmm, so what? Etzel - 20/09/2009 05:52:38 PM 1289 Views
It's a bit 'generic fantasy title'...... *NM* MikeyMikeyMikey - 19/09/2009 09:52:17 PM 732 Views
