Win a full set of Ian Cameron Esslemont Malazan novels


To help promote the US release of Ian Cameron Esslemont's Stonewielder, thanks to the kind folks at Tor Books I have a full set of the author's Malazan books up for grabs!

The prize pack includes:

- Stonewielder (Canada, USA, Europe)
- Return of the Crimson Guard (Canada, USA, Europe)
- Night of Knives (Canada, USA, Europe)

Here's the blurb for Stonewielder:

Greymane believed he'd outrun his past. He now ran a school for swordsmanship in Falar and was looking forward to becoming fat and lazy. With him was Kyle, though the plains youth was not quite so contented with civilian life outside the mercenary company the Crimson Guard. Yet it is not so easy to disappear when you are an ex-Fist of the Malazan Empire, especially one denounced and under a death-sentence from that very Empire.

For there is a new Emperor on the throne of Malaz, and his thoughts turn to the lingering drain of blood and treasure that is the failed invasion of the Korel subcontinent. In the record vaults beneath Unta, the Imperial capital, lie the answers to that disaster. And out of this buried history surfaces the name Stonewielder.

In Korel, Lord Protector Hiam, commander of the Stormguard, faces the potential annihilation of all that he loves as with the blood of his few remaining men and a crumbling stone wall that has seen better days, he labours to stave off the sea-borne Stormriders who would destroy his lands.

Meanwhile, religious war has broken out all across these lands as the local cult of the Blessed Lady, who has stood firm for millennia against the assaults of the Stormriders, seeks to stamp out all rivals; a champion refuses to stand against the alien 'Riders' and takes up arms in rebellion; and a local magistrate innocently pursuing the mystery of a series of murders is brought to the very heart of a far larger and far more terrifying ancient crime that has stained the entire subcontinent
.

The rules are the same as usual. You need to send an email at reviews@(no-spam)gryphonwood.net with the header "GREYMANE." Remember to remove the "no spam" thingy.

Second, your email must contain your full mailing address (that's snail mail!), otherwise your message will be deleted.

Lastly, multiple entries will disqualify whoever sends them. And please include your screen name and the message boards that you frequent using it, if you do hang out on a particular MB.

Good luck to all the participants!

What a beautiful site. These look a bit too epic high fantasy for me. Gorgeous artwork though!

Actually these books and their companion series by Erikson are not "high fantasy", they are rather some of the most grounded and gritty (realistic) fantasy books I've ever read.

Just wanted to say...

I would also like to know if this giveaway (or any contest in general as I've been trying my luck at the giveaways here to no success for almost a year) is open internationally.

Oh and another silly question but maybe it matters if you have filters at your email, do you want the subject with the "" and the dot at the end of the word ?

And ofcourse a big thank you for the great blog and the giveaways!
