Tor Books Senior Publicist Justin Golenbock writes “Calling all Malazan fans! The Crippled God, the highly anticipated final volume in Steven Erikson’s New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, ‘The Malazan Book of the Fallen,’ comes out from Tor Books on 1 March 2011, but fans can read a sneak peek of Chapter 1 right now on Tor.com at this link.
“‘The Malazan Book of the Fallen,’ starting with Gardens of the Moon, has always been for the hardcore fantasy fan: the series we recommend to those who want the best of the genre. The sheer size and scope of Erikson’s world-building is unparalleled, the many plotlines and convergences, dozens of original creatures and races, and hundreds if not thousands of unique characters. But alas, we’ve reached the end… where the final confrontation between gods, ascendents, and mortals is destined to go down as the mother of all convergences.”
