The entry point into one of the most notoriously 'difficult' but rewarding fantasy series of the past fifty years, Steven Erikson's monumental The Malazan Book of the Fallen, Gardens of the Moon is a breathtaking achievement . . . The vast, sprawling Malazan Empire simmers with discontent.It has been bled dry by seemingly interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake, Lord of Moon's Spawn, and his Tiste Andii. And now even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite.For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners - and for Tattersail, the Second Legion’s only surviving sorceress - the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to heal the wounded and mourn the dead. But the ancient citadel of Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, still holds out against the Empire - and Empress Laseen’s ambition knows no bounds.However, the Empire is not alone in this great game - sinister forces are gathering as the gods themselves prepare to play their hand . . .‘Tolkien might have made the most authentic feeling fantasy or sci-fi world I have encountered, but Erikson is the only writer who can compare . . . literally astounding’ GUARDIAN 'If you ask any hardcore fantasy fan for a 'final boss' recommendation, they'll probably point you toward Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen. It is a massive, towering beast of a series that doesn't care if you're confused. Erikson doesn't do hand-holding; he just drops you into a world with 300,000 years of history and expects you to catch up . . . it is a tough, dense read, but if you can stick it out, the emotional payoff is huge.'

The tumultuous eighth chapter in Steven Erikson’s epic The Malazan Book of the Fallen - and the story enters its final, climactic stages.It is said that Hood waits at the end of every plot, every scheme, each grandiose ambition . . .But this time it is different: this time the Lord of Death is there at the beginning.Darujhistan swelters and seethes with portents, rumours and whispers. Strangers have arrived, a murderer is abroad, and assassins are targeting the owners of K'rul's Bar. But such events will be dwarfed by what is about to happen – for in the distance can be heard the baying of hounds.And in far-away Black Coral, the ruling Tiste Andii appear oblivious to the threat posed by the cult of the Redeemer – an honourable, once-mortal man who now seems powerless against the twisted vision of his followers.So Hood stands at the beginning of a conspiracy that will shake the cosmos, but at its end there waits another: Anomander Rake, Son of Darkness, who has vowed to right an ancient and terrible wrong . . .‘Beautifully melancholic and exhilaratingly epic . . . one of the finest fantasy novels ever written’GRIMDARK**Cover may vary**

In Northern Genabackis, a raiding party of tribal warriors descends from the mountains into the southern lands. Their intention is to wreak havoc amongst the despised lowlanders, but for the one named Karsa Orlong it marks the beginning of what will prove an extraordinary destiny.Years pass and in the aftermath of the Chain of Dogs, Tavore, the new Adjunct to the Empress, has arrived in the last remaining Malazan stronghold on Seven Cities. She is faced with a seemingly impossible task – to hone twelve thousand soldiers, but for a handful of veterans of Coltaine’s legendary march mostly raw recruits, into a force capable of challenging the massed legions of the seer Sha'ik that lie in wait in the Holy Desert.But waiting is never easy. While her warlords are locked in a power struggle that threatens the very soul of the rebellion, the Sha'ik suffers – haunted by the knowledge that her nemesis is her own flesh and blood: her sister, Tavore . . . ‘Erikson’s magnum opus . . . sits in pole position as the very best and most ambitious fantasy saga ever written’ PAT’S FANTASY HOTLIST'The most masterful piece of fiction I have ever read.

War and betrayal, magic and myth collide in this, the tumultuous fifth chapter of Steven Erikson's magnificent The Malazan Book of the Fallen.After decades of internecine warfare, there is peace . . .The tribes of the Tiste Edur have at last united under the Warlock King of the Hiroth. And so, yes peace – but it has been exacted at a terrible price: a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst deadly.To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether, eager to fulfil its long-prophesied renaissance as an Empire, has enslaved its less-civilized neighbours with rapacious hunger. All, that is, save one – the Tiste Edur. And it must be only a matter of time before they too will fall.Or so destiny has decreed.Because ancient forces are awakening. The impending struggle between these two peoples is but a pale reflection of a far more primal battle – a confrontation with the still-raw wound of an old betrayal and a craving for revenge at its seething heart . . .‘Marvellously gripping . . . a riveting read, punctuated as ever with pockets of humour and fantastically individual characters’ SFCROWSNEST**Cover may vary**

Vast legions of gods, mages, humans, dragons and all manner of creatures play out the fate of the Malazan Empire in this first book in a major epic fantasy series from Steven Erikson.The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, ancient and implacable sorcerers. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins. For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners, and for Tattersail, surviving cadre mage of the Second Legion, the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to mourn the many dead. But Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, yet holds out. It is to this ancient citadel that Laseen turns her predatory gaze. However, it would appear that the Empire is not alone in this great game. Sinister, shadowbound forces are gathering as the gods themselves prepare to play their hand... Conceived and written on a panoramic scale, Gardens of the Moon is epic fantasy of the highest order--an enthralling adventure by an outstanding new voice.

Marking the return of many characters from Gardens of the Moon and introducing a host of remarkable new players, Memories of Ice is both a momentous new chapter in Steven Erikson's magnificent epic fantasy and a triumph of storytelling. The ravaged continent of Genabackis has given birth to a terrifying new empire: the Pannion Domin. Like a tide of corrupted blood, it seethes across the land, devouring all. In its path stands an uneasy alliance: Onearm's army and Whiskeyjack's Bridgeburners alongside their enemies of old--the forces of the Warlord Caladan Brood, Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii mages, and the Rhivi people of the plains.
But ancient undead clans are also gathering; the T'lan Imass have risen. For it would seem something altogether darker and more malign threatens this world. Rumors abound that the Crippled God is now unchained and intent on a terrible revenge.

The Tales of the Malazan Book of the Fallen are drawing to a close in a distant place, beneath indifferent skies, as the last great army of the Malazan Empire seeks a final battle in the name of redemption.

A thrilling, harrowing novel of war, intrigue and dark, uncontrollable magic, Toll the Hounds is the new chapter in Erikson's monumental series - epic fantasy at its most imaginative and storytelling at its most exciting. In Darujhistan, the city of blue fire, it is said that love and death shall arrive dancing. It is summer and the heat is oppressive, but for the small round man in the faded red waistcoat, discomfiture is not just because of the sun. All is not well. Dire portents plague his nights and haunt the city streets like fiends of shadow. Assassins skulk in alleyways, but the quarry has turned and the hunters become the hunted. Hidden hands pluck the strings of tyranny like a fell chorus. While the bards sing their tragic tales, somewhere in the distance can be heard the baying of Hounds...And in the distant city of Black Coral, where rules Anomander Rake, Son of Darkness, ancient crimes awaken, intent on revenge. It seems Love and Death are indeed about to arrive...hand in hand, dancing.

Much to the shame of their long-suffering general factotum, Emancipoor Reese...Here then - for readers' delectation and entertainment - are those escapades, namely the novellas The Crack'd Pot Trail, The Wurms of Blearmouth and The Fiends of Nightmaria . . .

BLOOD FOLLOWS - In the port city of Lamentable Moll, a diabolical killer stalks the streets and panic grips the citizens like a fever. As Emancipor Reese's legendary ill luck would have it, his previous employer is the unknown killer's latest victim. But two strangers have come to town, and they have posted in Fishmonger's Round a note, reeking of death-warded magic, requesting the services of a manservant.THE LEES OF LAUGHTER'S END - After their blissful sojourn in Lamentable Moll, the sorcerers Bauchelain and Korbal Broach - along with their manservant, Emancipor Reese - set out on the open seas aboard the sturdy ship Suncurl. Alas, there's more baggage in the hold than meets the beady eyes of the crew, and unseemly terrors awaken. For Bauchelain and Korbal Broach, and Emancipor Reese, it is just one more night on the high seas, on a journey without end.THE HEALTHY DEAD - The city of Quaint's zeal for goodness can be catastrophic, and no one knows this better than Bauchelain and Korbal Broach, two stalwart champions of all things bad. The homicidal necromancers - and their substance-addled manservant, Emancipor Reese - find themselves ensnared in a scheme to bring goodness into utter ruination. Sometimes you must bring down civilization...in the name of civilization.

The Letherii Empire is in turmoil. Rhulad Sengar, the Emperor of a Thousand Deaths, spirals into madness, while the Errant, once a farseeing god, appears suddenly blind to the future. Driven by the corruption and self-interest, the empire edges ever-closer to all-out war with its neighbouring kingdoms. And the great Edur fleet draws ominously ever closer. With Karsa Orlong and Icarium Lifestealer among its warriors, that blood will be spilled is certain. But a band of fugitives look to escape from Lether. One of them, Fear Sengar, seeks the soul of Scabandari Bloodeye, for he hopes that with its help, they might halt the Tiste Edur and so save the emperor, his brother. But another is Scabandari's old enemy: Silchas Ruin, brother of Anomander Rake. He carries scars inflicted by Scabandari, and such bloodshed cannot go unanswered. There is to be a reckoning and it will be on an unimaginable scale...

These are the voyages of the starship, A.S.F. Willful Child. Its ongoing mission: to seek out strange new worlds on which to plant the Terran flag, to subjugate and if necessary obliterate new life-forms, to boldly blow the...And so we join the not-terribly-bright but exceedingly cock-sure Captain Hadrian Sawback - think James T Kirk crossed with ‘American Dad'' - and his motley crew on board the Starship Willful Child for a series of devil-may-care, near-calamitous and downright chaotic adventures through ‘the infinite vastness of interstellar space’... The bestselling author of the acclaimed Malazan Book of the Fallen sequence has taken a life-long passion for ''Star Trek'' and transformed it into a hugely entertaining spoof on the whole mankind-exploring-space-for-the-good-of-all-species-but-trashing-stuff-with-a-lot-of-hi-tech-kit-along-the-way type over-blown science fiction adventure. The result is smart. inventive, occasionally OTT and often very funny - a novel that both deftly parodies the genre and pays fond homage to it.

The second novel in the awe-inspiring Malazan Book of the Fallen series. "Gripping, fast-moving, delightfully dark, with a masterful and unapologetic brutality reminiscent of George R. R. Martin." -- Elizabeth Haydon
In the vast dominion of Seven Cities, in the Holy Desert Raraku, the seer Sha'ik and her followers prepare for the long-prophesied uprising known as the Whirlwind. Unprecedented in size and savagery, this maelstrom of fanaticism and bloodlust will embroil the Malazan Empire in one of the bloodiest conflicts it has ever known, shaping destinies and giving birth to legends . . .
Set in a brilliantly realized world ravaged by dark, uncontrollable magic, Deadhouse Gates is a novel of war, intrigue and betrayal confirms Steven Eirkson as a storyteller of breathtaking skill, imagination and originality--a new master of epic fantasy.

'Awe-inspiring. Prepare to fall in love with epic fantasy all over again.' ANNA SMITH SPARK, author of the bestselling The Court of Broken Knives'Erikson is an extraordinary writer . . . treat yourself.' STEPHEN R. DONALDSONThe thrilling opening chapter in an epic new fantasy from the author of The Malazan Book of the Fallen...Many years have passed since three Teblor warriors brought carnage and chaos to Silver Lake. Now the tribes of the north no longer venture into the southlands. The town has recovered and yet the legacy remains. Indeed, one of the three, Karsa Orlong, is now revered as a god, albeit an indifferent one. In truth, many new religions have emerged and been embraced across the Malazan world. There are those who worship Coltaine, the Black-Winged Lord, and the cult of Iskar Jarak, Guardian of the Dead, is popular among the Empire's soldiery.Responding to reports of a growing unease among the tribes beyond the border, a legion of Malazan marines marches towards Silver Lake. They aren't quite sure what they're going to be facing, but, while the Malazan military has evolved and these are not the marines of old, one thing hasn't changed: they'll handle whatever comes at them. Or die trying.And in those high mountains, a new warleader has risen amongst the Teblor. Scarred by the deeds of Karsa Orlong, he intends to confront his god even if he has to cut a bloody swathe through the Malazan Empire to do so. But further north, a new threat has emerged and now it seems it is the Teblor who are running out of time. Another long-feared migration is about to begin and this time it won't just be three warriors. No, this time tens of thousands are poised to pour into the lands to the south. And in their way, a single company of Malazan marines . . . It seems the past is about to revisit Silver Lake, and that is never a good thing . . .'A master of lost and forgotten epochs, a weaver of ancient epics.' SALON.COMAcclaim for The Malazan Book of the Fallen:'This masterwork of the imagination may be the high watermark of epic fantasy.' GLEN COOK'Arguably the best fantasy series ever written . . . the quality and ambition of the ten books that make up The Malazan Book of the Fallen are unmatched within the genre.' FANTASYBOOKREVIEW'Nobody does it better than Erikson . . . the best fantasy series around.' SFFWORLD'In a league of his own in genre fiction terms - by turns lyrical, bawdy, introspective, poetical and blood-soaked . . . incredible.' BOOKGEEKS'One of the most original and engrossing fantasy series of recent times.' INTERZONE

‘Nobody does it better than Erikson . . . the best fantasy series around’ SFFWORLDHere is the momentous third chapter in Steven Erikson's magnificent epic sequence, The Malazan Book of the Fallen - a triumph of unputdownable storytelling. The ravaged continent of Genabackis has given birth to a terrifying new empire: the Pannion Domin . . .Like a tide of corrupted blood, it seethes across the land, devouring all who fail to heed the word of its elusive prophet, the Pannion Seer. In its path stands an uneasy alliance: there are Dujek Onearm's Host and Whiskeyjack’s veteran Bridgeburners and alongside them, some enemies of old – the forces of warlord Caladan Brood, Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, and the Rhivi people of the Plains.And more ancient clans are gathering . . . For as if in answer to some primal summons, the T'lan Imass have risen. It would seem something altogether darker and more malign threatens the very substance of this world. The Warrens are poisoned, and rumours abound that the Crippled God is now unchained and intent on a terrible revenge . . .‘Erikson . . . towers over every other author writing fantasy today’ SF SITE**Cover may vary**

Now is the time to tell the story of an ancient realm, a tragic tale that sets the stage for all the tales yet to come and all those already told...It's a conflicted time in Kurald Galain, the realm of Darkness, where Mother Dark reigns. But this ancient land was once home to many a power… and even death is not quite eternal. The commoners' great hero, Vatha Urusander, is being promoted by his followers to take Mother Dark's hand in marriage, but her Consort, Lord Draconus, stands in the way of such ambitions. The impending clash sends fissures throughout the realm, and as the rumors of civil war burn through the masses, an ancient power emerges from the long dead seas. Caught in the middle of it all are the First Sons of Darkness, Anomander, Andarist, and Silchas Ruin of the Purake Hold...Steven Erikson entered the pantheon of great fantasy writers with his debut Gardens of the Moon. Now he returns with the first novel in a trilogy that takes place millennia before the events of the Malazan Book of the Fallen and introduces readers to Kurald Galain, the warren of Darkness. It is the epic story of a realm whose fate plays a crucial role in shaping the world of the Malazan Empire.
