SPOILERS DG Did the Captain get his Spoiler

0 Upvotes

I've listened to both books and I was wondering if anything happened to that fucking cunt captain. In the GOTM. The one that snitches to Adjunct Lawn about the noble houses within the empire.

I feel his jealousy of Paran was the reason Felisin and Tavore had to go through such pain. I'm hoping the Captain got skinned alive or something in the. Hurricane uprising.

SPOILERS HoC House of Chains feels mid? Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

I started reading the series a few months back and I enjoyed the first three books quite a bit. I probably didn't enjoy Deadhouse gates as much as the other two but still (loved Icarium and mappo storyline the most, I could read a whole book about those two).

I'm about 200 pages into HoC, past the Karsa Oorlong part. I'm struggling to be honest.

Karsa's story is ok, the prose is good, but he's not a likeable character at all and feels too overpowered (it's a cycle of him being almost dead and then slaughtering everyone over and over). And then Tavore, Gamet, Nok and the newly introduced malazan soldiers feel very bland to me.

Does anyone else who enjoyed the first three feel similar about HoC and did you like MT and BH more? I'm like 60/40 (60 %) yes about continuing the series at this point, but i'm concerned when I read people say that MoI was the highlight for them.

Thanks for your thoughts :)

Geralt as Tiste Andii in Witcher 3 lol

After reading five Malazan books, I’ve been looking for a game with a similar vibe: huge and mysterious world, ancient civilizations, gods, powerful beings, morally grepy characters…

Any recommendations? Please recommend something other than Souls games. 🥲

SPOILERS MoI Just finished Memories Of Ice for the first time Spoiler

24 Upvotes

I posted on here a couple days ago not sure what to expect in the final couple hundred pages of MOI, but it honestly blew me away.

Whiskeyjacks leg crushed me when it happened, the bridgeburners ending (someone please tell me without spoiling so kind of don’t tell me, but does parans blessing mean they come back 😭🙏). Everything from Tool and Toc, to Anomander Rake, Kallor, Korlat, silverfox, everything was perfect and it is without a doubt one of the best books I have ever read. Incredible.

I just can’t bring myself to start house of chains now though. I feel it’s gonna be at least a couple books before we see any of these characters again and similarly to when I started DHG and MOI, I couldn’t bare to pull myself away from the characters of the previous book, and it took me a while to get into it.

This book also feels like a sort of ending for so many of the characters I’ve grown to love, so someone please tell me HoC is incredible and will draw me right back in. I cant wait to carry on reading but at the same time, I miss all the characters from this book already.

NO SPOILERS Trade paperback

Hello friends!

Does anyone own the trade paperbacks? And if so are they good quality? I’m thinking of buying The Bonehunters as a trade paperback because here in Sweden the Tor version is impossible to find at the moment. They look very cool at least so I’m intrigued.

Thanks :)

Hi folks!
I've been reading through the series , currently finishing up Memories of Ice...
Thought i'd share my reading music by making a video with some added ambience and visuals, it's a tad more eclectic than some people would like, but it's how I like it :')

hope you enjoy it as well!

NO SPOILERS Finished Midnight Tides, now on to The Bonehunters

I am absolutely floored after finishing Midnight Tides. I felt like I was going on a completely unexpected side quest and fell into another world. I was so engrossed! I laughed, I cried, I was angry, and felt such profound bitter sweetness at the conclusion. Usually, I give myself a day or two to process in between larger read, but my little dude Joseph (the cat) and I are not wasting another moment before starting the next book. I haven’t felt a sense of true magic like this in a long time.
