aMoL UK cover and Blurb (SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!) fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 21/05/2012 06:44:26 PM
The UK cover blurb is out, and boy does it have interesting things to say!

I'm copying it here:

'And it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died.’ – From Charal Drianaan te Calamon, The Cycle of the Dragon.

In the Field of Merrilor the rulers of the nations gather to join behind Rand al’Thor, or to stop him from his plan to break the seals on the Dark One’s prison – which may be a sign of his madness, or the last hope of humankind. Egwene, the Amyrlin Seat, leans toward the former.

In Andor, the Trollocs seize Caemlyn.

In the wolf dream, Perrin Aybara battles Slayer.

Approaching Ebou Dar, Mat Cauthon plans to visit his wife Tuon, now Fortuona, Empress of the Seanchan.

All humanity is in peril – and the outcome will be decided in Shayol Ghul itself. The Wheel is turning, and the Age is coming to its end. The Last Battle will determine the fate of the world . . .

For twenty years The Wheel of Time has enthralled more than forty million readers in over thirty-two languages. A MEMORY OF LIGHT brings this majestic fantasy creation to its richly satisfying conclusion.

Working from notes and partials left by Robert Jordan when he died in 2007, and consulting with Jordan’s widow, who edited all of Jordan’s books, established fantasy writer Brandon Sanderson has recreated the vision Jordan left behind.

A MEMORY OF LIGHT will be published on 8 January 2013.
Blurby goodness.

Nynaeve's revelation may make the AS even more worried of Rand being mad - 21/05/2012 10:58:37 PM 1211 Views
Not Egwene though... - 21/05/2012 11:02:41 PM 1028 Views
Maybe, maybe not ... Nynaeve just gave everyone proof of the extent of his possible madness - 21/05/2012 11:26:41 PM 1003 Views
Fair enough. - 21/05/2012 11:31:10 PM 1037 Views

She assumes he's mad just like most people assume a 19 year old boy is horney - 22/05/2012 03:47:49 AM 1213 Views
I'd like some evidence for this. - 22/05/2012 04:14:27 AM 1001 Views

- 30/05/2012 06:11:02 AM 936 Views
