The God is Not Willing?? Man that was great. It felt like a higher tier Book of the Fallen story and not one of the last books that went on for 10,000 pages about nothing.
Fall of Light special edition came in yesterday so put it on the shelf. There’s still a couple of random Bauchelian books I need. Should check eBay when I have some extra money. Oddly I’m not even in a Malazan trading group on Facebook.

I finished Toll of Hounds and the convergence was entertaining as always. I'm determined to finish the series now but I don't know if I'll continue on to the other Malazan books.
Karsa doesn't do much for me, but I'll reserve judgement until the end of the series.

I can see that, for sure. TGINW just felt like a good return to Bridgeburner story and the shenanigans of sappers and banter between all of them that the early stories had with Fiddler and company. Guess I’m saying the enjoyment came from that and less about the Teblor and Toblakai stuff.

I think RoTCG is the best of Esslemont's books. I've enjoyed his work because it fleshes out the Malazan world so much. Is it on par with Erikson's books? No. Will I still read and enjoy them? Yes.
Pretty surprised to see anyone say The God is Not Willing put them off from Malazan. I thought it was a nice return to form for Erikson, and set the stage for what ought to be a pretty eventful trilogy.

I'll read ICE's books because they are in the same world but they are all C-tier. God not willing is what prompted me to do re-read #1 2 odd years ago. The fact that I think about these books all the damn time is what has made me re-read them this time. I have an epub of all main 10 in one and I'm to the point where
, not really sure which book that is.
Karsa just made his flint sword

Take a look at my post a few up and it should have a good idea on the number of Hardcover vs Paper releases. Some of thr MM paperbacks are pretty expensive too bc weirdos are out there trying to collect every version that has been published. Hard covers in general are going up because the available binders and book maker people are going down and QA:QC took a big hit on some of the small publishers. SubPress did a 3rd printing on Book 1 and 2 which pretty much killed the secondary market for those printings for the moment.
If you’re interested at all in those SubPress I have rights to the 2nd printing and would be happy to sell to you for a forum bro price and transfer rights. I have a few other series I’m buying now and am not sure I want to keep sinking money in to another version of what I already have in 1st editions.

Today is the last day for the presale Broken Binding Malazan editions. Tomorrow opens up the first day of general sale.
If you’re looking to eventually get a complete matching hardcover set, this edition will be the cheapest to do that with. The binding is still glued and not sewn, so this edition is basically a signed matching hardcover set thats a slight step above the Tor editions.

I was about to pick back up my reread after finishing off the Foundryside trilogy, but then read recommendations about the Coldfire trilogy so stated that. Torn between wanting to go back to Malazan but also read new things. There was a time when I could read three books at once, but not these days.
