So I’ve been in the Malazan marathon for a while. Currently early in book nine, but expect to be done book ten within a month. It’s fantastic (pun intended)! Going to need something to cleanse the palate after such a rich series – the speculative fiction equivalent of the pickled ginger served with sushi. Any suggestions?
A very helpful write up on this, thanks! Yeah, I think the ‘waiting several pages to see what character we’re dealing with’ thing would be really annoying. But, it sounds like an interesting series despite this.
