A Memory of Light: update

2 long years have passed for the Wheel of Time community. News spread quickly of the book that was to be published from Robert Jordans own notes [insert much rejoicing here]. The book was to be "A Memory of Light" and WAS to be a SINGLE final edition.

My own (somewhat indignant) opinion that there was NO WAY to cram an ending to the Wheel of Time into a single book, was shared by many in the community.

As if our collective will had some mystical effect(or perhaps the reality of 50,000 plot lines ending in 1 book), recent news indicates 3 seperate books of considerable length.[Insert mixture of cheers and moaning]

3 books

A Memory of Light: The Gathering Storm (reported release date of November 2009)
A Memory of Light: Shifting Winds(reported release date in 2010)
A Memory of Light: Tarmon Gai'don(reported release date in 2011)
