The Steel Remains: 1 (A Land Fit for Heroes) - Softcover

"Bold, brutal, and making no compromises--Morgan doesn't so much twist the clichés of fantasy as take an axe to them."--Joe Abercrombie

"The award-winning author of Altered Carbon and Market Forces brings the same iconoclastic approach to his fantasy debut as he did to his sf technothrillers. . . . [Richard K.] Morgan's storytelling talent and his atmospheric, hard-hitting prose make this a strong addition to mature fantasy collections."--Library Journal

"Spellbinding . . . There's so much to like about the adventure."--Star-Ledger

"Morgan has taken traditional sword and sorcery tropes and given them a hard, contemporary kick. The antithesis of the cosy fairytale, this one is for big boys."--Times, London

"[A] dark, gritty tale . . . The well-developed characters and realistic battle scenes ring true."--Publishers Weekly

The Arthur C. Clarke-winning author of Thirteen presents an epic fantasy debut in which an aging war hero is thrust back into the violent life he thought he left behind and challenged by those who consider him a corrupt degenerate in polite society. Reprint.
