Okay people, time for a little something to brighten the weekend of those not at SDCC like me. What I have here is the perfect compliment to another active contest we are running, (a chance for 10 people to win Esslemont’s Return of the Crimson Guard) as it’s an opportunity for two ‘bookspoters to win signed copies of Steven Erikson’s Toll the Hounds

Synopsis:
In Darujhistan, the saying goes that Love and Death shall arrive together, dancing…It is summer and the heat is oppressive, yet the discomfiture of the small rotund man in the faded red waistcoat is not entirely due to the sun. Dire portents plague his nights and haunt the city’s streets like fiends of shadow. Assassins skulk in alleyways but it seems the hunters have become the hunted. Hidden hands pluck the strings of tyranny like a fell chorus. Strangers have arrived, and while the bards sing their tragic tales, somewhere in the distance can be heard the baying of hounds. All is palpably not well. And in Black Coral too, ruled over by Anomander Rake Son of Darkness, something is afoot - memories of ancient crimes surface, clamouring for revenge, so it would seem that Love and Death are indeed about to make their entrance…This is epic fantasy at its most imaginative, storytelling at its most exciting.
This is, of course, the latest installment to Erikson’s Malazan Book of the Fallen sequence, a series that threatens to become a life obsession for all bodhisattva everywhere. For those who missed it, check out a dandy interview I conducted with Mr. Erikson a couple of months ago.
This is open to all members of our the FBS/BSC community and winners will be drawn on August 7th. Please include applicable shipping info with your submission so I can get the information to the necessary people to get the book to you as fast as I can and to prevent me to have to hunt for winners who don’t claim their prize. An entry that does not have this information will not be considered. Please follow instructions:
Good luck to all those who participate, and special thanks to Mr. Erikson and the lovely folks at Bantam!
Be sure to check out our other active contests!
