I will spoiler so as to not influence Angel. Angel don't click this tag! and as much I loved MoI I have been really wanting to get into bk 4 fiercely for the past week. WITNESS!!!

Finished Deadhouse. That was so good to read again! That being the case MoI ought to be straight up mind blowing this time though I will be skimming one particular character arc this time around that I wanted to cry over on my 1st read.

I still need to play games and read the books. Odds are depending on how long it takes to make this will be my 1st big dip into the world. I do have W2 and did play a few minutes of it but turned it off to play Destiny a few yrs ago.

Whoop the Destiny 2 live stream made me happy today! Can't wait to get my hands on this game!!

Did you need Kleenex? I have 40 pgs left. Really looking forward to starting MoI again.

There's an old one? Never knew that.

I read up to Silverthorn a few yrs ago but at the time i started Apprentice I bought about 6 of them in total. Maybe up to Kings Buccaneers I think. Silverthorn kinda let me down and I haven't got around to starting Darkness at Sethon

On the whole smile/slap issue. Hopefully this doesn't sound mean and it's not meant to be but sometimes txt can look that without personally hearing the tone of speech... what is the likelihood this guy would have said something mean to the smile had nothing else in the chain of events took place after both parties smiled at each other? I'm considering the fact you say he is a scum when asking that. ed: ah I see it was just one smile my apology but the question is still the same on if he would have said anything about the smile?

Happy Mother's Day to any Sharders this applies to.

Only just getting to ch 5 around 90 pgs into Tigana. Loving it! Deadhouse Gates is taking up most of my reading time, 374 pgs in it. I'm barely making any progress in Safehold 8. I'm so ready to finish this series but the past bk till now pg 520 has been such a grind.

Not sure why it needs to be done in PMs though. Kinda frustrating then.

Sens8 s2 is up on Netflix now and it's giving me the feels watching it.

Watching S2 of Sens8 on Netflix!

I only made it to bk 4 on that and quit a few pgs in. I did like bk 2 but they weren't for me.

Yep I plan on reading them in ultimate order this time around.

I would say don't easy. Read if you can.

Here I ll link the Malazan wikia link and you can peruse the different orders. There shouldn't be spoilers unless you click on individual book titles. Note I have only read ICE 1st bk Night of Knives which technically takes place before Gardens but fans recommend reading after bk 5. It is a very short book and lacks SE depth but I hear he really improved on each entry he has done. http://malazan.wikia.com/wiki/Suggested_reading_order

Ian C Esselmont aka ICE is the co creator with Steven and has written about 5-6 bks.

your just at the tip of the ice berg to. Your gonna have a wild ride ahead but the best part is if you reread again in a few yrs your going to be even more amazed making connections in these early bks from much further in the series. Are you planning to just read the 10 bks 1st or are you going to incorporate Esslemonts bks as you go?

@Left i encourage you if in a few yrs time you do reread Dune don't just read 1-3. 4-6 are extremely good on 2nd time. Esp bk 4(I hated it 1st and was blown away on 2nd). Obviously yeah...no need to bother with 7&8 EVER again. Burn them.

Yep!

Oh yes! I'm catching so much stuff in Deadhouse that isn't known till bks 4&5 and maybe beyond. The sheer ability of Erikson is mindblowing in scope. It was so great to read these the 1st time but this 2nd time is even better catching this stuff!! I can't wait to further in the bks! on Tigana, I've gotten around to page 54 or so and I'm really enjoying the heck out of it as well. Not sure why people don't like it. It kinda has an Elantris feel to it I think.

My Tigana came in today so I'm reading 3 books again at once.

Time to buy a box of Kleenex. The feels start on Deadhouse. I wish my reading paste had kept up going into this one like Gardens but I'm only on pg 200. The font is tiny in the 1st edition hardcover though.

Just wait. Your going to be happy I think once you get some of the books under your belt.
