''Towers of Midnight'' by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson, ghostwriter after Robert Jordan's death, is the sequel to the novel ''The Gathering Storm'', and the 13th book in the Wheel of Time series. The novel is the second part of ''A Memory of Light'', Robert Jordan's projected final book. Because of the amount of material to cover, it was agreed by Jordan's wife, Tor Books and Brandon Sanderson to break the final book into three separate books. All three books are written by Sanderson with the aid of extensive notes left by the late Jordan.〔Foreword by Brandon Sanderson to Book 12: ''The Gathering Storm''〕 The title ''Towers of Midnight'' was proposed by Sanderson, replacing the working title of ''A Memory of Light: Shifting Winds''.〔 It was released on November 2, 2010〔〔 and is composed of 328,000 words.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Twitter Post )〕 The book debuted at #1 on The New York Times Best Seller list. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New York Times Best Sellers Hardcover Fiction )〕 The novel consists of a prologue, 57 chapters, and an epilogue. ==Pre-release information== On August 30, 2010, Tor Books, in conjunction with the release of Sanderson's 2010 novel, ''The Way of Kings'', announced that Sanderson would hand out bumper stickers throughout his promotional book tour. Some of the bumper stickers contained a code which would unlock one page of the Towers of Midnight.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Way of Kings Holds a Secret From The Wheel of Time )〕 Fans were able to guess the codes without receiving a bumper sticker and unlocked an entire chapter (Chapter 8). The final code was placed in Venice, Italy. The codes were the chapter names of Towers of Midnight. This event was promoted by Tor at Brandon Sanderson's request, and was able to generate an unexpectedly high amount of involvement from the fan community.
