This just in! Brandon and Tor.com are launching the first digital scavenger hunt in Wheel of Time history! You can get full details at Tor.com‘s page – but here’s the deal:
Starting tomorrow an encrypted page that reveals a Wheel of Time secret will post to Brandon Sanderson’s website. The actual page won’t go live until 8/31! To decipher the page, fans will have to collect unique digital codes that will be printed on the back of Wheel of Time bumper stickers. Brandon will be hiding at least one sticker per tour stop inside copies of The Way of Kings. (See below for those dates!) Each code unlocks a part of the page – getting us closer to the big reveal.
So be on the lookout for the oval Wheel of Time bumper stickers! If you find one, you can bask in the glory on the Stormblessed forums!
