Robert Jordan was a very well known and much loved Author of the epic series The Wheel of Time.
Robert Jordan sadly passed away last year and will be missed greatly by his readers and fans.
At the time of Roberts passing, the 12th and final book in the Wheel of Time series remained unfinished, and it has been decided by his family that the Author Brandon Sanderson will be completing this work, and with it, the Series. The Final Book will be called A Memory of Light and is expected to be published in the Autumn of 2009.
On the 8th April 2008 Robert Jordan had a permenant memorial unveiled at Roberts old College The Citadel. You can read more about this here.
