yeah I quit Malazan on page 4. LMAO names and uncommon words out the ass. Made me feel like an ignorant fool.
Common gripe with the first book, you just get thrown in. I'm a Malazan stan tho, I read the whole series three times
it's a series that gets better and better the more you know about it, which makes it a niche by default. Greatest book series and fantasy universe of all time for me though, I dont need anything else in the genre
On topic: I was not hyped about this at all, I even thought the show was about Aegons Conquest
So decided to watch and its about the Dance of Dragons
it restored the feeling of when GoT was good right away, just by having the set pieces and soundtrack being on point.
Threads gonna be way less fun compared to the OG because we can't really do the set repping with this show, it's all a form of #Targset in the end (not a spoiler since we know there is a Targ on the throne until Roberts Rebellion). Also this storyline has actually been concluded so we bookreaders know what's about to happen.
I'm in for a weekly episode of dragon fukkery though
