Do you need supervising in a bookshop?

i wonder if he actually explains anything in the malazan world, because that other guy has wasted an entire rainforest to tell me nothing and i gave up after book 2. i'm sure i don't know what the fuck was going on.

I think the only thing I had to look up on the forums was the definitions of warrens. Mind you, it does get explained eventually.

I quite enjoyed the whole "this makes complete sense but not yet to you" feeling about it - like reading a more rigourous William S. Burroughs.

He really does give a little more solid detail than Steve. It's a book spanning two days rather than years. You'd enjoy I think

i liked Burroughs, though the wierd monkeys from place of dead roads did my head in a bit.

well maybe, i just find the malazan books hard going. they're topo big for me and my reading skills are shite these days. i'm reading Gemmell at the moment; his books are the right tlength for me.

Night of Knives (ian Esselmont) is a fraction of the size of Steven Erickson's books.

Shorter than Waylander, for example
