Dragonpage podcast interviews Robert Jordan

Dragonpage, a popular fantasy-based podcast, had an opportunity to do an audio interview with Robert Jordan. It's pretty interesting, and an enjoyable program to listen to. Beware of KoD spoilers though! RJ comes right out and blatantly gives away several plot points.   One interesting tidbit is about how RJ is considering writing a non-WOT short story for a fantasy anthology.   More Info [ Dragonpage issue #189 with Robert Jordan ]

Robert Jordan Tour Report: Lexington, KY

Jarrod send us this lengthy report on the Lexington, KY book signing.   Thanks, Jarrod!   Another report came in from Robert MacCloud who briefly said that another customer asked Robert Jordan about his time in Saudi Arabia. Turns out that the person had mistaken him for Robert Jordan, the US Ambassador to Saudi Arabia who had been appointed by President Bush!   Yet another report comes in from Kevin Dean, one of Dragonmount's staff members who attended the event.     More

Knife of Dreams goes #1

Knife of Dreams is currently the #1 best-selling book in the United States. The report came from Tor today that the NEW YORK TIMES reported KoD as being at the top of their list. Some more details : Most of the books in the WoT series have been gone #1 on the list when they came out.   It is expected that KoD will be #1 on the London Times as well, but that's still speculation on our part.   Congratulations, RJ!

Robert Jordan Tour Report: West Chester, PA

We've received two reports so far from people who attended the book signing in West Chester, PA today. The first one came from Jennifer:     Thanks for the full report, Jennifer, and for the pictures. And kudos to whoever it was that started the happy birthday song for RJ. I wonder if our news article that reminded them, or just a very attentive fan?   The second report comes from Zach, who gave us this tidbit, and plans to send an audio clip of the event.

AND ONE MORE TIME

This may be the last post until after the tour, I'm afraid. We leave for NY early on Saturday, and that means tomorrow will be busy. There aren't only preps for the trip, there is the matter of getting things ready here for us to be away for a month. And there is this huge stack of bookplates that I have to finish signing for Time Warner (UK). At least they didn't do what they did the first time I agreed to sign bookplates. They sent me a carton with about 10,000 of the things, rough

YET ANOTHER, IT SEEMS

If I seem to be posting a lot, it's because the tour is coming up. I want to get in some of these things before I go away and the blog goes on hiatus. We'll be flying to New York on Saturday to take care of some business before the tour begins, on Tuesday. I'm a little worried about the first signing, I'll admit. I know I can pull a good evening crowd in NYC; I've done it before. But 12:30 on a Tuesday? That's the slot where they put politicians, movies stars and celebrities. Yes, I'm a little c
