Interview #468: TGS Signing Report - Tim Kington, Entry #8

Question

Will Moiraine be rescued in the next book?

Brandon Sanderson

You’re assuming that Moiraine will be rescued.

Question

Will Moiraine’s rescue attempt be in the next book?

Brandon Sanderson

You’re assuming that Thom and Mat will attempt to rescue Moiraine. (I’ll tell you, he’s as bad as an Aes Sedai.)

Question

What will be the focus of the next book?

Brandon Sanderson

This book really needed to focus on Egwene and Rand, and get their stories moving. There was also a nice contrast between their arcs in this book, with Egwene’s going upwards and Rand’s downward. The next book will be much broader in scope—we need to see what’s going on with a lot of different parts of the story. There will be a lot more Mat and Perrin than in this one. I suppose you could say that if there was going to be a rescue attempt, the logical place to put it would be in a book with a lot of Mat.
