Matt Ney is 30% done with Gardens of the Moon (Malazan Book of the Fallen, #1)
Almost ten hours in and all anything anyone does so far is talk. Laughable dialogue, foreshadowing repeatedly screaming at you to notice it, and not a single character worth caring about. I'm baffled.
Page number is a guess

Assassins is such a mindfuck of a volume.

The writing and characters are flat, the plot is told through exposition, but I'm still intrigued by its ideas and story despite its flaws. Feeling propelled by these last few chapters.

"Can you write poetry?" She asked.
"Poetry!?" Poetry? Did she mean . . . poetry?

Love this silly book already.

Love the interactions with Moss and the hitchhiker girl. Wish the Coen bros had included those scenes in the film.

Heckraiser is a very faithful adaptation of this novella. I'm enjoying the philosophy and art that Barker instills in his horror.

This has been entertaining so far, but the story has really gone buck wild these last few chapters. Wolfe keeps impressing me with his ability to pack significance/revelation/implication in minimal, stylized prose.

Giving up trying this series. If my imagination isn't captured within 100 pages of an epic fantasy novel, then it ain't for me.
