Fantasy HotList has another fantasy book giveaway.
The latest giveaways are for five copies of the US edition of Steven Erikson's Reaper's Gale, as well as five autographed copies of R. A. Salvatore's The Ancient, courtesy of the kind folks at Tor Books. They are really pushing the new Salvatore, what with the 250,000$ national marketing plan.

Reaper's Gale is the seventh volume of Canadian author Steven Erikson's epic fantasy series, the Malazan Book of the Fallen. There are ten planned volumes in this sequence. Reaper's Gale is a direct sequel to both the fifth and sixth volumes, Midnight Tides and The Bonehunters.

The novel was published in hardcover and trade paperback in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2007. The first United States edition is very tentatively scheduled for July 2008.

The Science Fiction Book Club has posted an interview they did with Steven Erikson. It covers, how he planned the novels, possible rpg games, his inspiration and an update on what he's currently working on. Read more here .
