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 2400 Views
Almost definitely. 13 towers in the complex. *NM* Werthead - 19/09/2009 01:35:49 AM 1008 Views

It's the place in Seanchan where the a'dam was first used. Werthead - 19/09/2009 03:46:46 AM 1774 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 973 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 714 Views

I agree. This was the 1st thing I thought of when I saw this. Cannoli - 19/09/2009 05:56:50 AM 1545 Views
Doesn't have to be a major arc though Rurouni_Kenshin - 19/09/2009 06:37:55 AM 1367 Views
I can't find the relevant comment from RJ, but... RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:40:03 PM 1482 Views
Thanks, I thought I remembered RJ saying as much. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:25:20 PM 680 Views
But RJ can change his mind right? redhand - 19/09/2009 01:38:54 PM 1355 Views
Of course. It would be nice to know where/when the comment was made. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 01:53:35 PM 822 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 700 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 842 Views
He'd probably go with "Lance of Lightning". *NM* TaskmasterJack - 19/09/2009 09:42:11 PM 708 Views
That sorta sounds like a...er...adult cinematic feature title NaClH2O - 20/09/2009 02:59:51 AM 1239 Views
Perfect for Martin, then. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 21/09/2009 01:33:45 AM 599 Views

Hmm, so what? Etzel - 20/09/2009 05:52:38 PM 1290 Views
It's a bit 'generic fantasy title'...... *NM* MikeyMikeyMikey - 19/09/2009 09:52:17 PM 733 Views
