Fallen

Gardens of the Moon (The Malazan Book of the Fallen, Vol. 1)

Steven Erikson

Tor Fantasy, 2005

It's complicated...
...but well worth the effort. "Gardens of the Moon" has to be one of the most confusing books I have ever read. However, if a person gives the series a chance, they will be pleasantly surprised. It has quickly become my favorite series of all time. The characters ...

Nephilim Stargates: The Year 2012 and the Return of the Watchers

Thomas Horn

Anomalos Publishing, 2007

Finally an intelligent scholar addresses the "under the rug" Biblical warnings...
I can't imagine a better time for this book to be released. Skeptics beware! Tom's findings are extremely well-founded and researched. I was skeptical at first, and being the kind of independant person who thinks for myself and bases my own theories on my OWN ...

Reaper's Gale: Book Seven of The Malazan Book of the Fallen

Steven Erikson

Tor Books, 2008

Brilliant!! Erikson keeps it coming!
Another fantastic installment in Erikson's epic series. My personal favorite of the series is Memories of Ice, but Reaper's Gale comes very close to taking that spot. So many plot lines through the previous books start to come together here. Erikson's mastery of the ...

An Uplifting Read
This is an excellent history of mountain climbing in the Himalaya. Isserman and Weaver do a masterful job, not just of recounting the history, but placing the efforts in political and cultural context. There were long periods where access to these mountains was ...

Midnight Tides (The Malazan Book of the Fallen, Book 5)

Steven Erikson

Tor Fantasy, 2007

Funniest book so far!
This book is about on par with the other books in terms of story, so if you liked the others, this one equals them in story. It is very slow in the beginning, and once again the author is throws out a bunch of new terms in the beginning and doesn't explain any of them ...

Deadhouse Gates (The Malazan Book of the Fallen, Book 2)

Steven Erikson

Tor Fantasy, 2005

Well then.
So - Just finished this and I tend not to write reviews, yet I feel compelled. The book drew me in with it's plots and exclusive magic system. The main characters, every single one, is a person you feel for - whether you despise them or love them. Erikson weaves his ...

Steven Erikson

THIS SERIES JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!!!
If you've read the series up to this point, I don't need to tell you how great it is. But you're in for a treat because this book is the best yet! There is a further fleshing out of the characters in Gardens, which makes you connect better them and makes the reading ...
