As with every Malazan book, the ending has me thinking a lot. Each book individually feels like an experience. Karsa’s character is a standout and I loved the first section of the book that focused solely on his POV. The middle portion of the book dragged somewhat, but I think that was more because there wasn’t always context for where certain event were going or why they were relevant. In hindsight, after all the reveals at the end, I’m already itching to go back and explore some of those sections I originally found on the duller side. Really phenomenal
