Not sure I would have bothered after two so-so books. <br /><br />I've got ALL the Erikson Malazan books waiting to read now this cycle is, in theory, finished.

I hope Rothmuss finishes his trilogy within a couple of years.<br /><br />Meanwhile I'm mining Glen Cook's back catalogue.Panicswitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074225770192887676noreply@blogger.com
