I haven't mentioned books for a while
The new, non-Malazan, sf book by Steven Erikson has publishing date. The Willful Child is coming out on 25th of September in UK and about two weeks later in US and it tells the whole truth about
These are the voyages of the starship, A.S.F. Willful Child. Its ongoing mission: to seek out strange new worlds on which to plant the Terran flag, to subjugate and if necessary obliterate new life life-forms, to boldly blow the...
And so we join the not-terribly-bright but exceedingly cock-sure Captain Hadrian Sawback - a kind of James T Kirk crossed with American Dad - and his motley crew on board the Starship Willful Child for a series of devil-may-care, near-calamitous and downright chaotic adventures through 'the infinite vastness of interstellar space'...
Other books I'm waiting for this year, beside this and of course Assail, are:
The final book in Richard Morgan's fantasy trilogy - The Dark Defiles.
The first book in the new Commonwealth series The Abyss Beyond Dreams: Chronicle of the Fallers by Peter F. Hamilton.
The Fifth Season - the first book in N.K. Jemisin's new series about a world that persists throughout numerous extinction-level events and life and magic that adapt to the frequent upheaval.
Charles Stross’s new Laundry series book - The Rhesus Chart - this time Bob Howard takes on vampires.
The new Garth Nix book set in Abhorsen universe - Clariel: The Lost Abhorsen - the story of the young woman who eventually became Chlorr of the Mask happening 300 years before the events of Sabriel.
And, of course, new Pratchett - Raising Steam - that just come out yesterday here.
