Critics Review
Tremendous … I loved having the opportunity to glimpse characters in a completely different light, and the creation of the Malazan Empire through the lens of reality rather than myth. Deadhouse Landing is one of Esslemont’s best books to date … for fans of anything Malazan, this is an absolute must. * FANTASY BOOK REVIEW ‘Recommended Book of the Month’ *The world building is truly impressive … the action scenes well written … Esslemont’s writing style addictive and engaging … if you’re looking for a new epic fantasy read, I strongly recommend taking a look at Deadhouse Landing, because it’s one of the best and most epic fantasy novels of the year! * RISING SHADOW.NET *Esslemont delivers another engrossing tale … has all the hallmarks of great epic fantasy … seamlessly weaves great characters, action sequences and genuine humour into a fascinating narrative … an essential read for Malazan fans, new and old. * THE CRITICAL DRAGON.COM *Esslemont nails the feel and flavour of Erikson’s books and brings the historical characters to life with a dexterity that will win over even the most sceptical fans. * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY *Tight and enjoyable … builds on the very fine foundation stones laid by Dancer’s Lament. * THE WERTZONE *Wonderfully tense … fantastic set pieces … it never stops having fun … his best writing yet … and I can’t wait to see the next instalment. * TOR.COM *
