The Wheel of Time?s Digital Great Hunt
Wheel of Time Logo
Brandon Sanderson is currently finishing Robert Jordan?s Wheel of Time series. �He is also starting his own 10-part epic fantasy series, The Stormlight Archive?in fact, volume one, The Way of Kings is now available, and Sanderson is going on tour today (8/31) to promote it. �Meanwhile, the next volume in the Wheel of Time series is due to come out on November 2.
Sanderson and Tor Books have come up with an innovative way to whet interest in both books simultaneously: The Great Hunt. �Today a secret about the Wheel of Time will go live on BrandonSanderson.com. �The catch? It will be encrypted.
Sanderson will slip codes that can decrypt part of the page into books at each stop on his Way of Kings book tour. �(At least one code will be distributed in each city.) �As more and more codes are uploaded to the site, the nature of the secret will come gradually into focus.
Happy hunting!
