What's New

Towers of Midnight is a #1 New York Times bestseller!

November 10, 2010May 1, 2024torforge

Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson debuts at #1 on The New York Times hardcover fiction bestseller list!

Publisher Tom Doherty began working with Harriet McDougal, Robert Jordan’s widow and editor, more than forty years ago. Many people at Tor have worked with the series for more than twenty years. Still others have watched Brandon Sanderson grow from unknown writer to the amazing talent that he is today. And readers of all ages, who deserve our unending thanks, have grown up with these books and shared them with others.

Congratulations Brandon, Team Jordan, and everyone involved!

Wheel of Time tweetup with Brandon Sanderson!

November 4, 2010May 10, 2024torforge

When: Monday 11/8 from 1:30 PM — 2:30 PM (EST)

On his last day on tour for TOWERS OF MIDNIGHT, Brandon Sanderson (@brandonsandrson) will be stopping by Twitter for an hour to discuss all things #WoT, #TofM, #WoK, and maybe even #aMoL! Join Brandon and the rest of us by following the #portalstone hashtag…but be forewarned if you haven’t read, spoilers may be discussed!

We’ll also have another member of “Team Jordan” on-hand: the cagey Maria Simons(@MariaLSimons), Robert Jordan’s literary assistant for 12 years, whose famed poker face could face a sore testing in the twitterverse. Special guests @Theoryland (Matt Hatch of Theoryland.com), @zemaille (Linda Taglieri of the 13th Depository WoT blog), @portalstones (Steve Godecke of Portalstones.com), and perhaps even @dragonmount (if someone can drag Jason and Jennifer from their day jobs) will also join us. So brush up those theories and watch out for RAFO cards, I hear Brandon’s getting quite the throwing arm…

If you’re new to Twitter and would like join us, Twitter 101 does a nice job explaining the basics. After you sign-up, search or click the #portalstone hashtag to follow along. To direct a question or comment, mention the specific user(s) by username, preceded by the @sign.

If you have any questions or problems, your friends here at Tor (@torbooks) and Tor.com (@tordotcom) will be on hand to help. And possibly, maybe just maybe…give some cool stuff away!

Hope you can join us!

Best,

Justin (@jgolenbo)
