My third time of trying with this one - I have the Kindle edition and Audible for maximum newborn-parent-proofness. I've tried and struggled twice, but didn't hate it either time, just got a bit stuck and found other shiny new books that pulled my attention. Enough people love this series and say the books come together at the end that I am giving it another go.

A bit more immersed again. Events seem to be coming together, the calm before the storm. Expecting a few big sequences before the end!

I'm enjoying it, but some parts are a slog. Kruppe is written to be annoying.

I'm enjoying this more this time around. The scale of Erikson's worldbuilding is obvious from the beginning and his imagination for the different places and characters is great fun to follow. Crone might be my favourite character so far.
One drawback is that the POV changes very frequently, and with little linking them, so momentum gets completely halted a lot. I know it will come together though.
