Welcome to Litsy!

Another massive book in Erikson's epic Malazan Book of the Fallen series, this 8th installment took a long time to read, but I loved every minute of it. Much of the action takes place in the city of Darujhistan and we get reacquainted with a number of characters from earlier books.

Erikson juggles about a dozen storylines and even more points-of-view but it all worked for me.

I don‘t know if it was because I had more time to read or I had more me time but I‘m done with this already 😳👏🏼👏🏼 so I have one more book in the series 😖 I‘m going to wait... yes I don‘t want to finish this series 😨 already so I‘m going to take a break and read a book from one of my swaps 😋 awesome reads still I just don‘t want to finish the series this soon

“Emotions are the spawn of true motivations, whether those motivations be conscious or otherwise” Steve Erikson - nothing I have heard has ever been truer than that quote 🧐

That looks pretty scary huh so next book up this one has 1294 pages 😝📖 and it‘s about to go down for@this weekend 🤣🤣🤣

I love the Bridgeburners and their bickering, but in this one there were less Bridgeburners. Also, I wanted to know what happened to the characters after book 7, but there are so many different storylines that only a few of the characters of book 7 appeared. But I love the epic scope of the series and I am already excited for the next book - but I will read a few shorter books first.
