Archaeologist and anthropologist Steven Erikson is the bestselling author of the genre-defining The Malazan Book of the Fallen, a multi-volume epic fantasy that’s been hailed ‘a masterwork of the imagination’ and one of the top ten fantasy series of all time. The first novel in the series, Gardens of the Moon, was shortlisted for the World Fantasy Award. He has also written several novellas set in the same world. Forge of Darkness was the first Kharkanas novel and takes readers back to the origins of the Malazan world. Fall of Light continued this epic tale. A lifelong science fiction reader, he has also written fiction affectionately parodying a long-running SF television series as well as Rejoice!, a novel of first contact. Set in the world of the Malazan Empire, ten years after the events recounted in The Crippled God, The God is Not Willing heralded the start of a new sequence – The Tales of Witness. No Life Forsaken is the second Tale in this epic adventure. Steven Erikson lives in Victoria, Canada. To find out more, look for him on Facebook: Steven Erikson – Author
