EUOL in the Tor Oct. newsletter
« on: October 01, 2008, 06:10:44 AM »
I just got my copy of the Oct. newsletter from Tor and the first thing was a blerb about MB and HoA.  You can see it here:

"The custom of royalty in referring to oneself is to naturally employ the royal 'we'.  We are very happy, we are very sad, we are bored and suffer from ennui.  For a royal prince there's no such word as 'me', It's always 'we'.  So rightfully I should be two or three, don't you agree?"

Mistborn: The Hero of Ages is an entire book that is, in a way, an ending. It’s the climactic sequence to half a million words of build-up. I feel that it’s the best book that I’ve written to date.

If you think you know what is going on in these books, just wait for this final volume. Remember what Kelsier always says:

There’s always another secret.

:D

It is becoming very difficult to contain my excitement...

@ Chaos - Agreed.  I think working on my costume (Yes, I'm pethetic.  But as I said before, that's what I enjoy doing) is helping a bit... but only a bit.

@Dawn - No problem.  I just figured people might want to see it.

Is this EUOL hinting about the trilogies that are to follow? :o

I don't follow. I think he's talking about how you can consider this as Act 3 of a 3-act structure.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

That's what it seems like to me too.


And there's nothing wrong with costuming!!!  ;D
