I don't know about specifics, but it is said that two main characters will die in this book.

I believe the release date for OotP is July 13, 2007.

I think I like the title of book seven. Hopefully it is indicative of a plot location, rather than a plot point.

I know that Emma Watson, Hermione, has mentioned wanting to do other things I don't think that they have an official word about it yet. The last time I heard anything it was still just being talked about.

As for the title, perhaps it points to plot location rather than anything else. I am only speculating though, I don't have any insider information.

I feel the same way about him, and Vasher as well.

My name is Dawn, I live in Spokane, Washington. I have a husband, two children, both boys ages 6 and 3 years old. While I love them I do love to escape from them occassionaly, and I use books to do that. I am an avid reader, and have been since I was a child, according to my parents.

 I discovered Brandon Sanderson (EUOL) totally by accident. I post on another author's site and we were doing a reading club and Elantris was nominated, and won, for a reading and discussion. Since then I have been hooked. I found his site, and then Warbreaker here, and have just browsed around a bit since then. I post sporadically, so far, but the more comfortable I get and the more of the site that I see, the more I will undoubtedly start to post. I have been told that I am a bit opinionated, and I wasn't quite sure if it was said in a good way, or in a bad way.

 So, thanks for having this thread, and so much stuff to look at :D

Yes, the future is a flexible thing. That being said.... I don't think that Lightsong is a seer in the traditional sense of the word. I think that he is from outside of Hallendren, and as such could be seeing things that have happened elsewhere. As a crewman or a captain of a ship he would have had the opportunity to be in a battle, as the seas can be very dangerous, and he would have had the opportunity to be near Hallendren, or even in it, when he was killed and then Returned. Pure speculation on my part, but it makes a certain kind of sense to me in the grand scheme of things.

I had thought of that, but it would be very difficult to do, unless it was Jewels or Clod. Someone with any breath would be felt by Vasher, but he has the same problem as others so with feeling Lifeless and those without their Breath. They kind of just don't show up on the radar. The others have their Breath so he would have felt them, and if they were following Vasher I don't think that they were working with him, just seeing what he was up to. Just my opinion though, I guess we will have to wait a bit to see what Brandon has planned for that bit :)

As for Lightsong, I still have the feeling that there is something there that we are missing.....more specifically I guess, that I am missing something. But I love the Lightsong chapters for their self-deprecating humor, and the fact that he has some of the most fascinating dreams. Like you are going to get a glimpse, but it eludes you.....but you keep looking just in case....Very nice.

I think that she should hear Jewels use it, as I think  she did, and not say anything about it, and nobody noticed in the first place, if I remember correctly. So, it should be kind of an easy fix with that.

I think that can be explained away by thinking that she wouldn't know what it was, or thinking that she didn't hear it. But it has been a bit since I read that chapter. Did they mention it after it was used, like her asking what it was, or anything like that?

I never even considered Clod/Artsteel, and I am usually an author conspiracy nut ;) I wonder how I missed it, even though it doesn't really seem to fit.

I don't remember an exact time being mentioned for his death either. Now I have to go back and read it again ;) Not that I mind that one little bit :D

Let me just say I love the Book 2 cover.

I have thought that since it was first mentioned, but I know that with writers the odds that you will get a straight answer on something that they are still working on is usually fairly slim, unless it isn't a super duper story twist. ;) So, I don't know if I every really stated outright that was what I thought. I know I mentioned that I thought Lightsong was more than he appeared, but I don't know if I mentioned that I thought he was Artsteel.

So, hello and welcome. Enjoy!

Just finished Melanie Rawn's new book Spellbinder, totally outside anything she has written before, so if you are a fan don't be surprised. It is modern day, and with witches, not Mages....whatever. I liked it anyway :)

Getting ready to start either Lions of Al-rassan, or Mistborn. Both are on my to read list, and both sound great, so I am not quite sure where to start. Anyone have any suggestions?
