Fantastic audiobook narrator, but just could not find reason to care for the characters or the plot, unfortunately.

Steven Erikson does it again. If you loved Malazan Book of the Fallen, then you will love this too.

Its a Steven Erikson Malazan book. What more is to be said?. As usual, it starts slow but there are so many plot threads that converge nicely at the end.
Beautifully written characters with their own personal quirks and eccentricities.
