These are 4-colored galley copies: From the New York Times bestselling breakout author announced last year to complete the final novel in the beloved Robert Jordan/ Wheel of Time series comes the final installment in a riveting dark fantasy trilogy. Beginning with Mistborn (Tor Mass Market; $7.99; August 2007) and The Well of Ascension (Tor Mass Market; $7.99; June 2008), Brandon Sanderson closes down the Mistborn saga with THE HERO OF AGES. Showcasing a darker world, increasingly mature storytelling and memorable characters, the story features thieves, secluded royalty, and dark alleys in a metal-magic-based world where the hero prophesied to save the world actually fails (unlike Frodo in The Lord of the Rings) … and becomes the Dark Ruler himself. What happens next comprises a labyrinthine storyline of surprises and memorable characters who will change the way you feel about government, morality, and friendship.
