Alina Alina said: " As a fellow Malazan reader said elsewhere, this is the grossest Malazan book out there. To which I will add that I haven't read ANY book with more gross and grotesque and horrifying imagery. Mr Esslemont really went to town with the bugs and the worm ...more "

Alina Alina said: " Fantastic book, written in the most perfect Ambercrombian manner, with so many characters and so many plots that war became almost a side-note. All well and good, since it was absolutely impossible to pick any sides or take up too great a fondness fo ...more "

Steven Erikson
“The Empress expects obedience of her servants, and demands loyalty.’ ‘Any reasonable ruler would have the expectation and the demand the other way round.”
Steven Erikson, Gardens of the Moon

Joe Abercrombie
“A man lost in the desert must take such water as he is offered, no matter who it comes from.”
Joe Abercrombie, Before They Are Hanged

Joe Abercrombie
“So we wait?” asked Severard.
“We wait, and we look to our defences. That and we try to find some money. Do you have any cash, Severard?”
“I did have some. I gave it to a girl, down in the slums.”
“Ah. Shame.”
“Not really, she fucks like a madman. I’d thoroughly recommend her, if you’re interested.”
Glokta winced as his knee clicked. “What a thoroughly heartwarming tale, Severard, I never had you down for a romantic. I’d sing a ballad if I wasn’t so short of funds.”
“I could ask around. How much are we talking about?”
“Oh, not much. Say, half a million marks?”
One of the Practical’s eyebrows went up sharply. He reached into his pocket, dug around for a moment, pulled his hand out and opened it. A few copper coins shone in his palm.

Joe Abercrombie, Before They Are Hanged

Rieko Yoshihara
“I so cherish these enlivening moments when you defy me even as a Blondy. When you react to me so humanly. I feel myself tingling right down to the center of my brain.

Rieko Yoshihara, Ai no Kusabi Vol. 4: Suggestion

“Your death comes.”
Joe Abercrombie, Half the World
