Something for the Prince of Nothing...


The capstone to R. Scott Bakker's epic fantasy Prince of Nothing series, The Thousandfold Thought, continues to pull in raves from the blogosphere. Like this long one from the Fantasy Bookspot:

"The austere thematic candor present in The Prince of Nothing makes it the most worthwhile epic sequence I have ever had the pleasure of seeing to conclusion; an epic fantasy that deserves much more than cult status, which may only stumble due to perhaps being guilty of taking a path that leads higher than most are willing to follow.

If there is an Epic Fantasy Canon, this sequence belongs in it."
