In a podcast fantasy author Brandon Sanderson noted that while his books were some of Tor Book’s best sellers they once sold one tenth as much of Robert Jordan’s. This week The Gathering Storm, Book 12 of the Wheel of Time reached number one on the New York Times and Publishers Weekly Best-Sellers lists, displacing "The Lost Symbol" by Dan Brown. The book partially written by Jordan before his untimely death in 2007 and completed by Sanderson based on Jordan’s notes and materials.
