Brandon Sanderson / Re: Brandon To Write Wheel of Time Book 12
« on: December 11, 2007, 11:34:38 PM »
Hello! I am new here, and wanted to congratulate Brandon on this! I am a WoT fan, and I have (sadly) never heard of Brandon Sanderson before. However, after perusing these forums and seeing how involved he is in his community, I am glad he got this gig. I will definitely be buying all of his books after reading all of these great things. I am in the school of WoT fans who believe that the series has degraded over the past few books (although Book 11 was much improved), and therefore I hope Brandon is given enough creative freedom to finish the series strongly.
Even though I want to know what happens in Book 12, I do not envy Brandon's task of learning the massive "database" of WoT knowledge. For those who have never read WoT, it is a series that requires you to re-read the entire series each time a book comes out, or you have no hope of understanding the details of what is going on.
