Just started the Malazan series I been avoiding it, it’s so long and hard to follow, I thought wheel of time was an undertaking, but WoT is like basic algebra, this is advanced string theory. I had to go over the first 3 chapters and start over again at least 9 times literally, but once had a general understanding of what was happening, it’s really fukking great! Still on first book, but it’s fukking incredible so far! So many good characters, great writing, and the stories are fukking crack! The series I did before this, The Broken Empire series, if anybody likes Grimdark, the first three books in the series, Prince of thorns, King of thorns, and Emperor of thorns has probably the biggest piece of shyt protagonist in the history of print lol very entertaining if you like anti-heroes from a perspective I’ve never read. The main character makes Joffrey look like Mr. Rogers.
I had to go on a site that had chapter summaries lol I have like a comprehension disability, I can’t understand things the first time I read them, it’s hard for me to follow, so I just read/listen to things 5 or 6 times until I understand them, but once I get it, it’s easy. If you like Epic Fantasy, I can make some recommendations for you.I was going to start Game of Thrones until someone recommended Malazan within their review. I read quite a few reviews saying that the author just drops you into the book and things are quite confusing. This is one of those keep a pencil and pad for the names type of fantasy novels, right?
Eventually I ended up reading Elric of Melnibone, pretty decent so far.
Saw the Harry Potter collection on sale and I should have it delivered by tomorrow. I stopped at the Goblet of Fire but don't remember much of the series at this point, for the price of entry i'm willing to restart.
I'll get to the Malazan series after Harry Potter.
