Interview #893: AMOL Midnight Release Q&A, Entry #30

Jeremy Griffin

My name’s Jeremy Griffin; I’m from Orem, Utah as well. I bought Eye of the World in 1991, so I’ve been reading them for a very, very long time. So thank you so much. By the way, Brandon—Alcatraz, fantastic—if you guys haven’t read any of them…rarely does a book make me laugh out loud. So thank you. Thank you very much.

Harriet, did Mr. Jordan have enough clout to be able to push his last book through to make it one novel like he wanted to? He said two thousand pages, I don’t care if that’s what it is…could he have done that because of his history?

Harriet McDougal

Well, the problem is, it wasn’t clout; it was pushing up against the laws of physics. [laughter] There are limits to the size a bound book can be without sort of falling apart the minute you open it. And then you’re up against the shelf space in bookstores.

Jeremy Griffin

Okay, great. Real quick too, please don’t sell the rights to a computer game for it if it’s going to be as bad as [?] was…[laughter] Please, please don’t do it.

Harriet McDougal

Ah, the rights are sold. [laughter]
