Just starting with Malazan, and finished up Gardens of the Moon a couple of days ago. Overall was pretty enjoyable, but it certainly shows that I'm out of practice with high fantasy worlds. Lots of unfamilar names that left me checking the cast list regularly.

Really looking forward to more info on the warrens that I'm hopeful will come in later books. While I get the impression the same cast won't be back for the whole series, I hope to see more of the Bridgeburners as well!

I have tried malazan so many times and just can't get through the first book. Idk what it is, I just can't seem to finish it. I've even tried the audio book, I think it's just a style thing

There's a couple books I've read where I've had to have two book marks, one for my place, and one for the index so I can figure out wtf is going on and who these people even are. I've enjoyed those books, but it's always an exercise in patience.
