It’s come to light recently that Steven Erikson, author of the Malazan Book of the Fallen series, has signed on for six more Fantasy novels once he’s done his magnum opus. It wasn’t clear what these books were going to be about, but details are starting to emerge.
James, from Speculative Horizons, recently had the chance to meet Erikson at a book signing and he reports on what he heard.
He revealed quite a lot of interesting stuff. For example, he has signed on for two trilogies after the Malazan series. The first will focus on the early mythology of the Malazan world, while the second will pick up on events after the end of the current series.
Interesting, indeed. This prequel trilogy seems to fall in line with what I was reporting a few months ago, a series of novels taking a gander at some of the Ascendents in their humbler younger days.
