User posted:I like GotM because masquerade climaxes are cool, and so is Darujhistan. I just finished GotM after several attempts and restarts. I'm haven't done much reading in a very long time, and it's something I want to get back into, and somehow dove straight into this series. My point is the climax was loving awesome and well worth the read to get to that point alone. I dove into the second book and was very concerned at first when there was all these new names and a bunch more confusing words I've never seen before and don't entirely understand, but then my homeboys (and girl) showed back up pretty quickly so I think everything will be fine.

I just finished my first read of Memories of Ice. It took me way too long to get to this point, and definitely too long to read it, but it was very satisfying. I'm pretty sure those last twenty pages or so had me bouncing back and forth between tearing up and laughing.

I'm through the first few chapters of House of Chains and dear God the realization that When Karsa and Torvald are on the boat in that Warren with the Tiste Edur it's the same boat from the second book, some 1500 pages of text ago, and in seeing what actually happened was incredible. Or at least I'm assuming that is the case, my memory might be fuzzy. Also a quick question about timelines, spoiling just in case Does this whole book actually take place after book 2, or does it start around the same time, but the time jumps eventually make it go past? It seems like the latter so far unless I'm wildly misinterpreting things.

dwarf74 posted:The extended Karsa prologue of HoC happens well before the rest of the book, though, and before Book 2 for sure - and that's what siggy was asking. Yup, that was exactly it. I kind of figured it out for sure when they kept mentioning the rumors of an upcoming rebellion in the Otataral Mines. Honestly that chart looks very memey so I was taking it with a grain of salt.

I just finished Midnight Tides this morning. I was hesitant going into it. A whole new world? All new characters (except for one)? It was the fastest I've finished a book in the series so far. I absolutely loved it. Might be my favorite so far. Tehol and Bugg's insane conversations rule. I would read entire books of just those two talking.
