Feeling like Ganoes adventure beat you down so bad you gotta take a break, I feel you


Black Company inspired Malazan, take your time readin it though, it'll be your last series built like that

Why you ain't tell me Malazan got a sequel

Book 1 out and book 2 coming this year

Might have to jump back in when that drops

9/10

Spoiler

The Jackal is a MUTHAfukkA, but I understand...and I fukk with him. But he best leave Sevro alone. Mustang is a bytch, and I wonder who snitched on Darrow, cause Mustang been missing. Roque is a bytch too. Aja and Antonia is some hoes too. And Luna...I hope that bytch dies horrifically. My man Lorn got murdered and didn't die like a true warrior. Book was epic. I'm still mad Darrow telling his secret ...smh

Book 3 tomorrow

CLASSIC.

I read this when it dropped.

If you dig this, Diamond Age is my favorite from him

But after that, he goes off the deep end..

Started off with a bang. Jackal is starting to be a great villain. I'm sure the fight with Cassius won't even happen with this book. I want Cassius dead tho. I do love how the siblings came and basically got foddered. Trigg and Holiday. Aja just keeps improving her femme fatale. I wanted to keep reading so that lets you know how much the book is great. The thing about it is so fast paced when the action starts, but the slowness of the story unfolding very Anime like with the sub plots and twists and turns. Still wondering if Harmony dead. She was mentioned with 0 death and where the hell is Mustang? I'm sure her reveal in Book 3 will be a slow burning section. But I want Darrow to Aja and kill her now. I miss Lorn, even though he was but a small section in Book 2, I have a thing about elders in stories. I'm 9 chapters in however.

Took longer than I expected but I finally finished reading A Dance With Dragons by GRRM


Those Reek chapters showed how much of a demon Ramsay Bolton was. The wedding night scene was legit tough to read

Spoiler

Jon Snow . Man that death really shocked me. I had to read that last section twice

 

[MidniteJay]

Finished. Had a blast reading this trilogy can't wait for Red God.

Spoiler

I was about Cassius since the end of the events of the Institute but his time with Darrow made him real likeable by the end. bytchass Lysander killing him the way he did has cemented his place in the Halls of WOAT. That piece of shyt having a weapon that can wipe out any color of his choosing is just...

I can't even predict the fukkery for the next book too many opps in the cut. I'm sure Rhonna O'Lykos ain't dead tho and will be used against Darrow.

Next up:

"Brother Diaz has been summoned to the Sacred City, where he is certain a commendation and grand holy assignment awaits him. But his new flock is made up of unrepentant murderers, practitioners of ghastly magic, and outright monsters, and the mission he is tasked with will require bloody measures from them all in order to achieve its righteous ends.

Elves lurk at our borders and hunger for our flesh, while greedy princes care for nothing but their own ambitions and comfort. With a hellish journey before him, it's a good thing Brother Diaz has the devils on his side."

Preordered! Steven Pacey will be narrating the audiobook like he did for The First Law series. Best Author/Narrator team up. Not out till May 13 tho

I'm looking forward to The Devils, too. I haven't read any Joe Abercrombie so that will be my first

If he keeps the trend with The Devils you'll want to read his other books. I'm jealous, you got 10 great books you don't have to wait for.
