maxal Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 6 hours ago, Jondesu said: I would love to see Adolin and Nale on the cover. I think it could be really cool, and it should be set at Urithiru. Adolin is set to be a major part of the story despite not having a POV early, after the murder of Sadeas, so if you're correct that Dalinar won't be on the cover himself (and it makes sense, if it's being planned that way), I think that's a fairly likely possibility. Nale of course I'm less sure on, but he also seems set to take more prominence. Actually, clues indicate Adolin's role into the next book is everything but major: cutting down his page time in half and removing him from the main narrative pretty much indicates he won't play anything but a very supportive role into any given arc. Sadeas's murder was a Red Herring. I thus sincerely doubt we will ever get cover art (or inside page art) featuring Adolin. My personal guess would be Szeth, Eshonai, Jasnah and/or probably Dalinar himself as it is his book. It may also be Kaladin in the inside page and Shallan on the cover. We simply do not know, but I honestly doubt Brandon's team would waste amazing Micheal Whelan's cover art on Adolin. Among those I have named, my personal preferences would be Dalinar, without his Plate, wearing his Kholin uniform. It would also be great if book 3 could solve the "what does Renarin look like" question as well... I am curious about it, so I wouldn't mind if it were him, but I think it might be too early in the series for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, even though I loved Adolin in WoR, I don't think he's going to get any more page time than he did in WoR, actually, I think he might die in the near future, if the Alethi figure out what he's done, they will probably execute him.

Shqueeves Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Although she's had very little screen(page?) time, I think it would really cool to have Lift on the cover. Even if this doesn't happen, I'm just excited that the draft is finally done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sallin Zeras Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) The only thing I ask for Brandon Sanderson to do is for him to write more chapters in the Stick's perspective. I really think it's a very deep character and I would like to explore his story. If it's possible, I would like for the Stick to be a main PoV character in the back five books, I would really like to see its backstory and its motivations to be a stick. Definitely my favorite character, and I hope it can also be in a cover, I would love that. Anyone else agrees with me?

Can't wait to read this book. Dalinar is going to all about being a badass warrior. He worked hard amd played even harder. Reminds me of myself in my early 20s.

I sent out the money for my commission of Adloin I also sent a litell extra to the artis so hopefully he dies an amazing Adloin. If anything happened to Adolin I Kaladin would be pritty pissed off as well. But could Adolin cousin the king pardon him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
