Malazan Ascendancy – Gardens of the Moon: Chapter 1, part 3
This installment actually only covers a short bit, but it is notable and it’s one that made me smile when I got to it. That’s right, Aragan! * please note that this feature will subject you to massive spoilers from later in the book and BEYOND it. This is not a clean-slate walkthrough, but rather [...]
Malazan Ascendancy – Gardens of the Moon Reread: Chapter 1, part 2
Continuing the re-read of the first chapter that I posted last week. This post will cover the introduction of Lorn and her meeting the now grown Ganoes Paran, who we first met in the prologue, who we know was 12 back then. This takes place 7 years later (1161st Year of Burn’s Sleep,103rd Year of [...]
Malazan Ascendancy – Gardens of the Moon, Pale: Chapter 1 (part 1) Reread
Editors Note: I started chronicling my reread of Gardens of the Moon at another blog, but have decided to bring it over to and continue under the Gestalt Mash banner. For those who don’t know, I’m a huge fan of the series, as you may be able to tell via the interviews I’ve conducted with [...]

Malazan Ascendancy – Gardens of the Moon read moves to Gestalt Mash
Just wanted to drop a note here alerting people that I’ve moved and will continue Malazan Ascendancy, the re-read of Steven Erikson’s Garden of the Moons — the first book in his ‘Malazan Book of the Fallen’ series over to Gestalt Mash. It just makes the most sense for me, adding to the content at [...]

Steven Erikson’s Gardens of the Moon Re-Read
Back to my re-read of Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson! I know, I know, it’s been awhile, but you have to give me a break, as I actually have an excuse running the BSC Deathstar AND recently launching Gestalt Mash. Rest assured, as soon as I posted this latest entry, I started on [...]
Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson – re-read continues
It’s been month, but I just put up the latest installment of my re-read of Steven Erikson’s Gardens of the Moon. This is a fun, little portion before the action starts picking up in Pale. I just chat a bit about the infamous Aragan and (I think–not so sure myself!) clear up a minor confusion [...]
Steven Erikson’s Gardens of the Moon re-read
Just a note letting you know I updated my re-read of Steven Erikson’s Gardens of Moon that I told you about last week. I’m planning on going through all of the works of Steven Erikson and Ian Cameron Esslemont (if I live long enough), so obviously this is set up to be long term project. [...]
Gardens of the Moon Re-read – Malazan Ascendancy
Update: this feature has been moved and continues at Gestalt Mash. Just wanted to do a quick pointer to a little re-read project I’ve meaning to do for some time now. It’s actually a bit more than a re-read, as I will also be doing an accompanying outline and character pages as I go (and [...]
Night of Knives by Ian Cameron Esslemont – review
Night of Knives is a really intriguing book to me because I have gone back and forth on it, and some of the baggage that comes with it is rather unique. It was not a book I’d have described as “top shelf” in the year it was released, but it is one I find myself rereading. Among [...]
Dust of Dreams by Steven Erikson – review
Steven Erikson reveals to the reader in the prologue to Dust of Dreams that it is actually the first half of the final book and since that final book was way too long to publish as one volume, it has been split into two halves, Dust of Dreams and The Crippled God. Now, considering the [...]
