\"\"<\/a>Well, we began on December 17<\/a>, when I announced a 3 book giveaway of “A Memory of Light”<\/strong><\/em> for New Zealand and Australian readers, with the books to be supplied and forwarded by Hachette New Zealand. (Thank you, Hachette. \ud83d\ude42 )<\/p>\n

As I said then, I was delighted to have the opportunity to be part of the giveaway, because as both an epic fantasy lover, as well as an author, I really feel that this is an “epic” moment. After all, this series began almost quarter of a century ago and bringing it to completion has required another author, Brandon Sanderson<\/a> to pick up Robert Jordan’s<\/a> creation and complete it to the satisfaction of the Wheel of Time’s dedicated readership. The stuff of epics indeed.<\/p>\n

I also linked entry for the giveaway to a series of questions. I hope not difficult questions—for readers of the series at any rate. And that is the very reason I asked them, because as much as possible I wanted this giveaway to be for those who love the series, many of whom may have followed it for a long time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

And it began with this in 1990...<\/p><\/div>\n

From reading the posts, those who commented seem to have enjoyed the questions. I am glad of that, because I have very much enjoyed your responses—not least because of your enthusiasm for the series and its characters. So thank you<\/em> to everyone who did comment—and although, alas, there are only three books to giveaway, I hope you have also had some fun\u00a0reading each others’ comments.<\/p>\n

And here we are, poised not only for the 3rd and final giveaway, but also for the worldwide release of “A Memory of Light”<\/em>, and completion of the Wheel of Time series, tomorrow on January 8—an historic moment!<\/p>\n

But for now, onto that draw:<\/p>\n

The winner of the 3rd and final giveaway copy of “A Memory of Light”<\/em> is:<\/span><\/h2>\n
