Announcing a new blog series, and upcoming giveaway!

[Kytheria al'Shea]

Main page of the site -- the usual site blog / Site News / News tab. (Simply http://www.tarvalon.net, not the forums.)


If Tech gets something else up and running at a different URL, I'm sure Viv will announce it!

*Edit to add: Also, Tech or maybe Viv can perhaps speak to the potential of an RSS feed. I agree that it would be excellent to have this set up on our Site News, even beyond this read-through series!

I would love an RSS feed! +1 that idea.

 

[Keisha al'Benn]

Ah thank you muchly!

 

[Twibli Abaru]

This is awesome :joy

I already have my credits saved up to get the audiobook. I like to read and listen at the same time

 

[Hilwa Katir]

I love this!

 

[Keisha al'Benn]

Just read the second installment....thank you to all making this possible.

Just wanted to add that everyone should now be able to comment on the posts. Sharing your thoughts is encouraged! And no, people don't have to be full members of the site to comment -- they just have to create a login specifically to comment.


We're working on the RSS aspect as well, and will post as soon as that's good to go.

Thanks to the Tech team for their assistance with these things :fistbump

 

[Vivianna L'antreau]

Yes! Thank you so much tech!!

Latest update: Audio clips are now available, for your listening pleasure!

We've received the first of our audio clips from Tor. The clip from The Eye of the World has been added to its respective blog post, the most recent post in our reread series: http://www.tarvalon.net/news/road-memor ... -eye-world

Check it out! And if you haven't yet commented on the EotW post -- sharing your own take on the book or the audio -- feel free to chime in!


Though we haven't received an audio clip for New Spring yet, we will definitely have audio in the upcoming reread posts. Thanks go to our friends at Tor Books for providing these audio samples exclusively to TarValon.Net for the fan community to enjoy.

Marketing and Tech are continuing our collaboration on The Road to A Memory of Light project, to ensure that you all get to enjoy exciting features like this as we lead up to the big release of the final book of The Wheel of Time. Stay tuned for the next posts in the blog series, more special features like fancy graphics, and of course the upcoming giveaways. Hope you enjoy!

Giving this a poke because the latest post in the series is up! http://www.tarvalon.net/news/road-memor ... gon-reborn

Don't forget that you can comment on these posts and share your own perspective on each book!

 

[Kytheria al'Shea]

The latest post in our reread of the series is up, and we've just gotten the audiobook clip from Tor so you can now sample that as well!


What do you all think of the reread and giveaways so far? Is there additional content that you're interested in seeing? Are you doing a reread of the series on your own? I encourage you all to post your own thoughts, comments, and perspectives on the books in our blog posts!


As always, the link to the blog is at the top of our site (Road to AMoL tab) -- and you can jump to each post and giveaway from that page.

I am thoroughly enjoying listening to each audio clip that is posted. I have never listened to audio books before so it's a new experience to me.

 

[Kytheria al'Shea]

Thanks, Keisha! We got this one from MacMillan a bit late, but I'm glad folks are listening to these and enjoying them when we do get them.
