A brief description of the whole Malazan universe as of August 2020, as well as a recommended reading order.
There are a lot of recommendations out there, but my main charge to you is: read the 10 volume series Book of the Fallen before branching out to spinoff novels/series.
Purchase all books here: bookshop.org/l...
The Malazan Book of the Fallen:
1. Gardens of the Moon
2. Deadhouse Gates
3. Memories of Ice
4. House of Chains
5. Midnight Tides
6. The Bonehunters
7. Reaper's Gale
8. Toll the Hounds
9. Dust of Dreams
10. The Crippled God
After Book of the Fallen, you have a lot of choices before you, and I think any of the following books could be next on your list.
If you want some shorter stories that run (mostly) parallel to the main series, check out Ian C. Esslemont's Novels of the Malazan Empire. Order:
1. Night of Knives
2. Return of the Crimson Guard
3. Stonewielder
4. Orb Sceptre Throne
5. Blood and Bone
6. Assail
If you are really curious to learn more about Emperor Kellanved and Dancer, check out Esslemont's Path to Ascendancy Series. Order:
1. Dancer's Lament
2. Deadhouse Landing
3. Kellanved's Reach
If you want to stick with Erikson but with a slightly different flavor (ie. more traditional fantasy) and are curious about the Tiste Andii and Elder Warrens, check out the prequel series The Kharkanas Trilogy.
1. Forge of Darkness
2. Fall of Light
3. Walk in Shadow (FORTHCOMING TBD)
Erikson's newest book The God is Not Willing is the first installment in a new Trilogy revolving around Karsa Orlong entitled The Witness Trilogy.
Finally, Erickson has release a series of novellas and short stories around Bauchelain & Korbal Broach. You can pretty much read these at your pleasure after you finish Memories of Ice.
