\"StevenPat, from the wonderful Pat’s Fantasy Hot List<\/a> (check it out!), just released details of a press release concerning Steven Erikson, his Malazan series, and all the fun stuff that will be going on in 2008!<\/p>\n

Here’s what he had to say:<\/p>\n

\n

Erikson’s publicist just forwarded me a press release which indicates that 2008 will be a busy year for Steven Erikson and The Malazan Book of the Fallen. Here’s what they have on tap:<\/p>\n

February will bring the reissue of the series’ opening chapter, Gardens of the Moon, with the new cover art and an exclusive introduction, all for a bargain price to entice new readers to pick it up.<\/p>\n

April will bring the paperback edition of Reaper’s Gale, and will include a teaser from Toll the Hounds.<\/p>\n

June will see the release of the eagerly anticipated Toll the Hounds. For the very first time, this latest Malazan volume will get a hardback release. Indeed, the trade paperback of Toll the Hounds won’t hit the stores until the fall.<\/p>\n

Even better, Steven Erikson will visit the UK around the publication of Toll the Hounds, and will thus attend bookshop signings, readings, and related events.<\/p>\n

As if this wasn’t enough, the icing on the cake will be the publication of Ian Cameron Esslemont’s Return of the Crimson Guard, first as a limited edition from PS Publishing this spring, and then with the “official” release coming later in the summer.<\/p>\n

All in all, quite a good year from Malazan fans!:-)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I know I’m not the only one excited for what’s sure to be a breakout year for Steve!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
