Memories of Ice

I feel like in the 3rd volume of Malazan, I'm finally starting to get to know some of the characters. The cast as a whole is still huge and unlike most anything else I've read (other than WoT). I did utilize the Malazan wiki, though, which really helped.

There's too much going on in this book to go through things in any detail, so I'll be really general. I have started to enjoy the writing style. The characters are quite interesting and very diverse in style (too many authors have essentially the same character or trope everywhere... there's little of that here). And this book has some fantastic battle scenes and those are very well written.

3 books into the series, and knowing there are a total of 10 of these... this is going to be a multi-year slog.
