Pat's Fantasy Hotlist: Quote of the Day

Quote of the Day

[...]

Sorry folks. . .

Steven Erikson felt that the poem could be perceived as a spoiler of sorts by some, so I have removed it from the Hotlist.

Looks like 2011 is going to be a good year for fantasy books... every time I see that cover for The Crippled God I get so pumped to read it.; 10:29 AM
Anonymous said...: Probably the review I have bean looking the most forward to in my entire life. Great cover.

I hope Ganoes Paran gets a lot of focus in this book.; 11:37 AM

machinery said...: what is the giant creature in the distance ?

Dave said...: I agree with that about Ganoes Paran, I miss that character. Still it's hard to see him getting a lot of focus when he has been "off screen" for so long and he isn't mentioned in the blurb at all :(

Ganoes > Tavore; 4:34 PM

Can't say I've read the Fallen series but that cover looks wicked.; 4:41 PM

Anonymous said...: Would be great if you could give some kind of update on the book on MalazanEmpire for every 100-150 pages you read or so. Has there ever been a series this long that had an ending? I can’t think of any. This is very exciting.; 10:15 AM
Anonymous said...: Whaaaaaaaat!?

You SAYIN' THE WISE MANS FEAR was BAD!? How can you Pat?

Wait, what...? That's NOT what you're saying?! Then what DID you think of it?

Guy said...: So the stained-standard metaphor has become full circle with the rusted weather vane of the prologue.; 12:24 PM
Cecrow said...: I've mixed feelings with this poem: it's a sad farewell from the characters to the reader and tugs the heartstrings after the long slog (probably speaks to how Erikson feels as well), but at the same time slaps in you in the face with "here's a reminder you're reading about made-up stuff."; 7:43 AM
GuyDude said...: As made-up as LotR is the "Red Book of Westmarch" in Tolkien's legendarium.; 10:37 AM
