Robert Jordan's Successor chosen

When I first started the Wheel of Time series in college I was drawn in to the amazing story and couldn't wait to start the next book. While I stopped reading at book 8, I was still waiting for the series to be finished so I could return to finish off the rest of the books. Then came the sad news of Robert Jordan's untimely death on September 16th after a long fight with a rare blood disease. At the time of his death he was getting ready to start work on the 12th and final book in the series.

Jordan didn't want the series to end with his death, so he laid out the end to close family members so that his epic tale could continue. And now Brandon Sanderson has been chose to finish the final book A MEMORY OF LIGHT. Well, I'm ready to start reading again to see how the series finally ends...
