'Towers of Midnight' progress bar

They have to put in the product placement Tor has sold.

 

You mean the coke Morraine will be drinking when she is rescued or the Roebucks which Mat will wear to the rescue.

So was I.

I laughed at both...

 

But I do wonder what brand Mat's hat is. I mean, it's an awfully good hat.

A new tweet by Brandon:

Okay, back and ready to hit the last week of this revision. (There will be one more after this one.)

 

EDIT: Also:

8% cut from Chapter 80. In other news, the chapters have numbers now. 94 chapters in the book plus a multi-scene epilogue.

94 chapters? Holy crap.  That blows away the previous WOT high for chapter count (which I believe was TSR with 58 chapters).  There must be a hell of a lot more viewpoints in ToM.

:o  Wow!  Man, this one's going to be epic.

 

Only 98 more days

From Brandon's Twitter about a half hour ago:

Chapter 81 is a heart-wrenching one Maybe the one in the book I'm most proud of, despite its contents. Anyway, 18.5% cut from it.

 

Let the speculation begin-is it related to the Black Tower, or the Borderlands? Or perhaps Tower of Ghenjei?

I'll wager five cool points it's Lan. Nynaeve arrives too late to save him or something, fulfilling Min's vision.

[Barid Bel Medar]

Ill put my money on.

In no particular order.

 

Rand's "death"

Lan dead.

Logain dead.

Mat getting his eye poked out.

Olver somehow getting owned.

[Duskfire]

I am looking forward to the multi-view epilogue as well.

 

Man, this book is going to be so epic!

One of the best books I think!

 

Alot of sad moments im also thinking.

 

Brandon said it would be darker than tGS, so it will be bloody epic.

 

I think that it will possibly be better than the final book, AMOL.

I want the chapter list to be released just so we can sit and speculate on who Chapter 81 has to do with based on the name and work from there :P

Gosh, imagine the hell that would have been let loose if they did that with The Gathering Storm.

 

Imagine seeing the chapter : "The Death of Tuon"

 

*hell breaks loose*  :D

And, a clarification from Brandon:

Website updated. 85% of the book done now in this revision. Novel is due in on the 15th of August. One more draft after this.

[Elgee]

It's so close now! Like seeing the finishing line after a mini-marathon ... lol

 

I do hope they don't release chapter names - I want as much of a surprise as possible. *Looks significantly at Luckers*

[cortezthekiller]

These last couple months are always the hardest.

 

November should pan out to be pretty sweet.  School will back in full, the busy season for us bartenders in New Orleans will be in full swing ($$$), and the Saints will be playing (and winning) again, and the new wot book will be out!

 

We need an :excited: graemlin on here.

I am with you Brother but in my case My Beloved Bolts will be playing, Good Times!

[Nikki]

i guess its kinda worth it to fail exams to read  :P

[lordofsoup]

I got school.  I can't wait, just hope I don't have any cross country races the next couple days after it comes out. 

[TheBeerPatriot]

From Brandon's Twitter a half hour ago:

All is coming together. Exchanged emails with Team Jordan. I suspect the final book will end up around 60 chapters, after combining scenes.

 

Ok, so it won't be 94 chapters.  I was really surprised when I saw that number being discussed yesterday.  Still, if it's 60 chapters that will still be the largest number for a WOT book.

 

[Millon]

Has there been anything about a prologue or first chapter early release? I am nearly frothing at the mouth here!

[JenniferL]

No, there has been no announcement yet of when preview material might be released. My guess is that it will be sometime in September.
