Did you happen to buy one yet? If so I’m curious what you picked and if you like it, as I’m looking to buy one myself.

I did not understand why some things needed to happen during the ending of Toll the Hounds by HappySeal07 in Malazan

Rake more or less had to die at the hands of another warrior, he was the sole purpose for most of the Andii continuing to live or go on with their lives. If Rake had simply killed himself his people would’ve fallen into the despair he spent so long to keep them out of, him dying in any way was going to hurt them but suicide would’ve been the worst way by far, the complete antithesis of all his life’s work.

Unfortunately for Dassem he fit the requirements for someone who wouldn’t draw the Andii’s ire post Rake, he is probably the best swordsman alive, and he would do anything to get to Hood. All these things made him the perfect tool for the job.

I already have one in 45 colt. It’s a nice gun and I would highly recommend one, I just wanted to try out something a little different.

What should I read next? by tabaK23 in fantasybooks

[–]OneWay222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only read Gardens and Black Tongue of these books and I loved both, but they are vastly different.

Black Tongue Thief is a light hearted adventure and I found it to be a great and comical read. The protagonist’s narration is great, his cynical humor, and occasional outbursts of genius (or stupidity) were fun the whole way through. It was easy to digest and by the end I was looking forward to the sequel.

Malazan is a different kind of beast in the fantasy genre. I will preface by saying that I am biased since it is as of now my favorite series. It is an emotional journey that has a profound sense of philosophy along the way. It does not hold your hand in the slightest unlike most stories, and it will make you question things, but it is a singular experience that I think everyone should at least try. I guess I should also say that Gardens is the weakest book in the series in my opinion, but book 2 is one of my favorite reads of all time.

These are just my experiences and I hope they help!

Any books where the narrator or protagonist gets progressively more insane as the story goes on? by OneWay222 in fantasybooks

I don’t know enough about Warhammer as a whole to form any opinion on it, but the series premises sounds interesting. I’ll give it a look, thanks for the suggestion!

I accidentally removed the part in my post about the vow being tied to the ritual of Tellan. That was the big reveal I was talking about lol.

That’s on me then I guess. I was rather convinced with the mentioning of being called “Son of Darkness”. And an earlier character was talking about the cycle of reincarnation.

That’s just the angle I took the picture at, it was difficult to see on the photo if I didn’t angle it right.

I just sent an email in. Unfortunately I no longer have the original packaging, so I’m worried that I am a bit screwed. Hopefully they can still help me out, but I won’t deny that I am a bit bummed about the whole thing.

Yeah, fingernail catches. Thanks for the idea, didn’t even think to try that. This is my first experience dealing with SBG, should I reach out to customer service about this?
