Faut s'attendre à un gros bouquin donc, de la taille de Memories of Ice. A titre de comparaison, Forge of Darkness faisait 295 000 mots.Steven Erikson a écrit :Fall of Light has been delivered to the UK publisher. Not sure when it will be released, however.Thanks for hanging in there.The stevenerikson site is undergoing a refit and will reappear as steven-erikson.com soon (long with ian-esslemont.com, both linking to a central malazan site.I am presently writing the next Bauchelain and Korbal Broach novella and should have it done in a couple of weeks.Fall of Light came out at about 355 000 words: the structural issues were a bit of a red herring, as I returned to my original plan of interspersing the two story arcs, and that seems to have worked out just fine.Hope you are well, and do convey my greetings to everyone at the forum. Following the novella, I have the next Willful Child SF novel to write, since it's due in October. All is well.
Vu ma vitesse de lecture, le temps que j'ai à y consacrer et les quelques BD que j'ai en parallèle, ce genre de bouquins me tiennent facilement plus d'un mois, donc pas de souci de mon côtéJ’ai étalé ma lecture sur trois semaines et sur un rythme de deux ou trois chapitres maximum, je te conseillerai bien de suivre quelque chose de similaire pour ne pas subir ce trop-plein.
Thanks so much for all your comments and encouragement. To those of you waiting for the trilogy to finish before buying, no need to apologize. Waiting for books sucks. Personally, I wish FoL hadn't taken three years to write. That alone is a long wait for any reader. I think what's made the Kharkanas trilogy so fragile for me is that it was always a risky proposition, in terms of tone, atmosphere and writing style. It's dense stuff, and while the style is seductive (for me) it's also one that requires a certain frame of mind. I wasn't aware of how vulnerable that frame of mind was until it got hammered. It may well turn out that after the first Karsa novel (working title: The God is not Willing), I'll head straight back to Walk in Shadow. Sometimes momentum is all one needs.
