Esslemont and Erikson co-created the Malazan world in the 1980s. Night of Knives was first published in the United Kingdom by PS Publishing in September 2004 as a limited hardcover. A paperback edition followed in May 2006. Bantam, who publish Steven Erikson's Malazan novels, published Night of Knives in hardcover on 7 May 2007 and in mass-market paperback on 5 May 2008. Its first U.S. publication was published by Tor Books in May 2009. Night of Knives is the first of six novels by Esslemont, each collectively subtitled A Novel of the Malazan Empire.
