To think I started this journey almost twenty years ago …
If anyone had told me years back that the summer of 2005 would find me completing
The Prince of Nothing,
I likely would have coughed beer out of my nose. But here I am, and I have a long list of debts to prove it.
The Prince of Nothing,
I likely would have coughed beer out of my nose. But here I am, and I have a long list of debts to prove it.
First, to my wife, Sharron, who has literally supported me unto the brink of insolvency. I stand tallest when she’s at my side.
Then, the usual suspects: my brother, Bryan Bakker, for the gift of second sight; my friend Roger Eichorn, for the gift of his second sight; and my agent, Chris Lotts, for his honesty and his acumen—not to mention the odd eleventh-hour bombshell!
I would also like to thank:
Steve Erikson.
My family and friends, for indulging my obsession in conversation after conversation. Joe Edmiston, for his squash-court criticisms. And my neighbour Mike Brown, for helping me sort out the difference between mystery and obscurity.
The entire crew at Penguin Canada: Barbara Berson, Tracy Bordian, Karen Alliston, and Leslie Horlick. As well as Darren Nash and everyone at Orbit, U.K.
But the people I most need to thank are the
fans
