Why You Should Read Malazan Book of the Fallen

[@bookishlybookish]

Steven Erickson just reposted this video on FB. You're rockin it, girl!

[@BookswithBrittany]

Awe yay, that makes me smile ☺️

[@deebzscrub]

I'm in the "this series made me more empathetic" camp. Erikson does an amazing job of showing everything from different perspectives and it honestly helped to change my entire worldview.

[@BookswithBrittany]

I love hearing that!

[@Johanna_reads]

Erikson's prose, characterization, and world is phenomenal. As far as I can tell, the emotional response and call to compassion this series generates is unparalleled. I was very moved by the stories you shared. This is truly a life-changing series. The compassion quote from Memories of Ice is one of my favorites, and I loved the one you shared from Bonehunters. Fantastic video, Brittany! 🦖 🤍 🦖

[@BookswithBrittany]

Thank you! So glad you’re enjoying the series ☺️

[@friendlyneighborhoodanthro475]

Omgg hi anthropologist here: this series and Steven Erickson are so well known !! I’m glad that other people love them just as much as we have!

[@immersedinpages3712]

Brittany.. You uploaded this right after I started Gardens of the Moon an hour ago OH MY GOSH I'M SOOOO HAPPY LOL The coincidence 🥰

[@BookswithBrittany]

Awe yay!

[@violetbliss4399]

I can't even recall how many times I have re-read the series and it's just never tedious; instead I keep finding new nuggets. I think what makes it powerful to me is the emotional and humorous sides, it makes you think and reflect without feeling overly preachy about certain themes, and I think it is more effective because it is not something you expect. When I first read these books, I didn't even know that grimdark and such was a thing, and honestly it never occured to me as the focus either. There are dark themes but they are more a vehicle to encompass the beautiful things that shine through. It is simply one of the high points of fantasy as a whole. I also want to add that it is so nice to see that more are discovering the books. I discovered them around when House of Chains had just been released, and some time later places such as Malazan empire forums and stuff, but it was hard to find places to discuss the series beyond that. So it's wonderful that you & others that are voices on these internet plains are bringing it to light, letting yet more people find it and give it a chance. :)

[@CrippledPrincess]

Omg you reading those passages has just made this a MUST READ for me, only thing is, I'm in the middle of wheel of time ATM lol, I can't take this on too

[@DanClapp]

lol I'm reading WoT for the first time so I'm in the same boat. Hopefully you're finished with it by now and have started on Malazan

[@CrippledPrincess]

@@DanClapp lol I'm actually on the Witcher now

[@DanClapp]

@@CrippledPrincess Oh nice, those are fun. Too bad about the show though, it was so good! Are you still gonna read malazan?

[@CrippledPrincess]

@@DanClapp eventually I decided I needed to get more series under my belt first, WOT was pretty much my second book after the hobbit that I got into lol

[@Arandrul]

Thanks Brittany! You've convinced me to start my 4th (or 5th?) re-read. ;D I have the entire physical book collection, but I also own it in audiobook format. My 3rd time was accompanied by the audio and I really enjoyed slowing my pace to match it. The narrator has some unique pronunciations but I admit to having a few myself. It's perfect for those late summer nights by the campfire. I'm so happy many others are enjoying the Malazan universe and speaking out about it because it really is a masterpiece in fantasy and beyond in my opinion.

[@BookswithBrittany]

The first time I tried one of the audiobooks was for RG and I loved the experience. It really made me slow down as well

[@richf6567]

I could talk about Malazan until the sun turns to ash. It feels like a part of my DNA now. The scale and scope, the beauty and depravity, the rage and the joy. It offers everything but it demands effort and work in return. Timeless, ageless masterpiece. Witness!

[@Yanman93]

My favourite video on Why to read Malazan!

[@bobbiop785]

Seeing those philosophical quotes really makes me want to read this series now, i live for that kind of stuff in books.🦖

[@francoanzalone4061]

Thank you! I bought the whole series and can't wait to start reading it !

[@scottie7345]

Starting Malazan because of this vid! I read most of Sanderson for the first time this year and really enjoyed it, but I wanted something more complex. This video and one by That Book Guy convinced me to start 'Gardens of the Moon' - it's a lot to take in. but I'm enjoying it so far! :)

[@littlemousereads]

I've DNFd Gardens of the Moon a few times. I think I had so much trouble because Malazan gets hyped up as this really difficult and obtuse read and I went into it expecting to fail - self fulfilling prophecy! Thank you for this video, you've given me the motivation to pick it back up soon and take it more slowly.

[@BookswithBrittany]

Awe yay, I hope you enjoy it more this time around!

[@carole5648]

as weird as it sounds, my best advice would be, don't worry too much about trying to understand the big picture. just pay attention to each scene as it comes. I had trouble when i started GotM but once i got to about the 70% mark my mind was blown and i was so excited i think i read the last third of the book three times.

[@ec_me]

I DNF'ed it twice. Third time I tried to just finish through. I think the story gains momentum and it becomes easier. Best of like Serenwyn.

[@daydev2599]

I'm going through Gardens of the Moon right now, I was bracing for something absolutely impenetrable from the way people are talking about it. Compared to that I found it almost straightforward (not saying it's actually straightforward, just compared to my expectations), the goings on are perfectly understandable. So sometimes it could be constructive to expect to fail, too.

[@alfredinthebookcave5331]

Fantastic way to recommend a series. May have finally convinced me to give it a go. 🦖

[@BookswithBrittany]

Awe yay!

[@rapidevening]

I'm seven minutes in and you've already convinced me to start this series

[@kingofhearts642]

I'm halfway through Gardens of the Moon... and I love it so much already. I've heard so much about how confusing and dense it is- and yes, it's a lot and I don't understand the full picture entirely. But it's so good, and it's not like you can't follow the main story at all. If this is the 'rough' and 'weak' start that I'm meant to 'push through'... oh man am I hyped for the rest of the series.

[@Maria-lt2tk]

And this is why I love you're channel, you give such in-depth discussions , I loved the breakdown of themes, 💕 it reminds me of the way lienne described the wolf by Leo Carew , the author also has a background in anthropology and there's lots of rich world building , deffo got me invested to try malazan 😊 consider you're mission accomplished haha

[@BookswithBrittany]

Lienne is the sole reason why I’m going to read The Wolf lol And thank you 🤍🤍

[@CMH82267]

🦖 Getting ready to re-read the series shortly. I read it about 2 years ago now and your video has sparked my interest in it again. I do recall while reading the first time how I would constantly think about the characters, the world, the story, and where I thought things were going, and that kept me engaged and reading until I finished, and then thought about the characters, the world, the story, and where I thought things would have gone. I only wish it hadn't ended, though it's such a great read and epic emotional journey. 🦖

[@BookswithBrittany]

I can’t wait to continue!

[@aldan7812]

Another stellar entry in the book-tube archives :-) Awesome stuff Britt

[@BookswithBrittany]

Thank you! ☺️

[@Buchertn]

I'm currently reading the series and I'm starting Memories of Ice next month I can't wait! The epic battles, characters, and some of the philosophical ideas have had me hooked since book 1.

[@BookswithBrittany]

Oh you’re going to love MoI!

[@kathleenbrashier2579]

Holy Crap!!!! That long quote about religion @ 6:07 from The Bone Hunters is >>it

[@Bunny_Aoife]

This was an awesome video 🦖... those were some beautiful comments u got there, so much to relate too, and so reflective of what I feel. Especially the first comment you read, reminded me a lot of my first Malazan experience. I first read the series in a place without shoe laces and it gave me hope.

[@BookswithBrittany]

I just love hearing what this series means to people ☺️

[@JeannyMeyer]

Yes, this video gave me the final nudge :) it’s a shame that it is spring now, I love reading fantasy in autumn/winter. But I might not be able to wait that long to start reading the series!

[@BookswithBrittany]

Yay, so glad to hear you want to pick it up!

[@cartershanks]

Read the entire series 3 times over and its probably the greatest fantasy epic of all time. I have a special edition of "The Lees of laughters end" signed by Erikson. I love that book so much cause it feels like a movie a read in a short span so i can re-read once or twice a year and still love it.

[@jacobwalsh1888]

It is amazing, but nothing can dethrone Tolkien. The groundwork that made Malazan possible was laid by Tolkien. I restrict myself to saying it is the greatest modern fantasy, and sets a new high bar for complexity.

[@alejandroga666]

So amazing to see the explosion of Malazan content on YT! Great video!

[@BookswithBrittany]

😊

[@nohatenate]

I'm what you could call a veteran fantasy book reader, and just reading book one blew me away. It was almost exactly what i wanted it to be. And no book has ever peaked my curiosity and interest quite like gardens of the moon. It was a challenge, but the type of challenge that is relished. Knowing its up to you to understand, and no one is going hold your hand, much like in real life. All that said I am unbelievably excited to finish the rest of the series, can't wait to learn more and dive deeper into it all.

[@Anomanderrake_]

I’m halfway through House of Chains and all I can say is that Malazan is definitely one of the best fantasy books out there. I’ve heard it’s even better on reread!

[@BookswithBrittany]

[@MatthewSwartout]

Brutally beautiful... "A million word treatise on human compassion."

[@benjamincliman2735]

I'm on book 3 now. It's pretty right brain stuff, and is definitely more original than other fantasy series that I've read. I think that another thing that sets the series apart is the conversations and the character building. It's very philosophical and poignant, and gives the books a level of depth that I wouldn't normally associate with fiction

[@granderonde599]

Very well done and excellent points. You get out of them what you are willing to put in. The Malaztubers are amazing and it's fun to both nerd out about the sleestaks as well as discuss a lot of the deeper themes. Looking forward to your reaction to RG if you can stay dry eyed.

🦕 One of my favourite things so far is that in Midnight Tides - the middle of the series, after series upon series of seminal events when I finally I had a mostly solid grip on the characters and the world we just move to another continent/other cultures/other conflicts and he still manages to reintegrate all of that into the overarching plot.

[@TheImpaler87]

🦖 Great video Brittany! Also people shouldn't be sleeping on the Esslemont books, I loved how The Bonehunters had all these easter eggs coming from Night of Knives. New readers should stick to the main series, but if you really love the series after a few books under your belt it's time to check out the publishing order from both authors.

[@shawngillogly6873]

Thank you for sharing. Currently on re-read #3 for the series, 6 for books 1-3, with a couple intervals between, since I started my 1st read as the series was written. The only other fantasy I've read more often is Tolkien. And as I commented to Philip Chase on his top 10, choosing between Malazan and Tolkien is like choosing between Arwen and Galadriel. I remain Gimli. But I shan't seek my axe for those who choose Malazan over LotR. 😉

[@DarkRuins]

I've been wanting to try it for a while but I really don't have the attention span for that many books... yet these reviews, damn.

Have you ever tried an audiobook? It's a good way to pick up a dense story without having to dedicate your entire focus. It may require some backtracking at times but at least your can adjust what kind of attention you want to give to the story at any moment. At least that's my approach to some books. My life schedule does not allow for much time to sit and read.
