Tor will want Brandon to tour for it and the next WOT book at the same time.

I'd like to point out that I'd like to read this thing to...

But I don't even live in the US...so I just hope it'll get published  someday...

I think next fall. Seems like October is in my head for some reason.

Tor will want Brandon to tour for it and the next WOT book at the same time.

So, we're speculating the first book in Way of Kings/Dragonsteel/Whatever will be available October 2010, right?

Ookla, when you said "the next WOT book" you're talking about volume 2 of AMOL, right? I just want to make sure I'm following this correctly. It wouldn't make much sense for Brandon to tour for both WOT and Way of Kings this November if Way of Kings won't be out until fall 2010.

I can't wait for Way of Kings! I don't believe I'm actually saying this (since I love WOT), but I'm a little sad that Brandon has to put so much time into finishing up the WOT. I really enjoyed Dragonsteel and think any series with some of the same concepts will definitely be AWESOME. At the same time, one of the reasons I'm excited Brandon is working on WOT (besides having an end to the story) is that he will get the experience and practice of working in such a large and complex story. I'm hoping Way of Kings is kind of like WOT, in that it is a LONG series of THICK books set in a world of rich details.

Any idea when Brandon will decide for sure on the name of the first book and when he'll announce that to us? (And the series, for that matter.)

Odds are it will/won't be published all at the same time.  The book is being almost entirely cannibalized (as I understand it) into other books.  So, everything within the book will be put in pages on a shelf, but all together.

Honestly I'm surprised it actually got there that fast. I once had an ILL request that took 13 months to arrive. (And it was awesome. I still do not understand why Bugs Potter LIVE at Nickaninny was published only in Canada.)

Yeah.  I was surprised too.  I expected it to take a few weeks at least. 

But I was sitting at home getting ready for work and my grandma walks in with it, and I asked her what it was and she said the library called her and said they had a book for us. ha ha.

I've decided that I really like the way teachers instruct in this book.  It would most definitely make for more intelligent people in the world.  Corporal punishment should still be around.  IMO of course.

Also, despite it's roughness I am really enjoying this book.  I can't wait to see what comes from it being cannibalized into other projects.

Is this the version that has a prologue with a guy named Adsen in it?

Sadly, there is no prologue.  (I'm currently at the part with the one year skip in time.  Strafen just beat Martis for the fact that Jerick is learning faster than him.  Also where Topaz is talking about stealing books from the Tzendish temple.

Tzendish?   Sounds a bit derivative.  What was that race invented for Star Fleet Battles?  Oh yeah Kzinti (pronounced: zin'-de).

LOL
