The last part of the book with the Jaghut Tyrant felt rushed but I think I understand it better now on the second read. Events would've turned out much worse if the Tyrant had been able to get to the Finnest. I guess that's why he was able to be overpowered with minimal damage to the Tiste Andii. I'm guessing Lorn didn't just leave the Finnest in the Tyrant's barrow because it would've gotten too strong too quickly and she wouldn't have been able to get away? I still don't understand how Kruppe's dream interferes with the Tyrant or how the Azath appears all of the sudden to stop it. I guess that's just how things work in this Universe. Maybe the Azath was always in Darujhistan to begin with?
I read the first 6 books last year or maybe I started them in the end of 2014 and stopped in 2015. I got up to the beginning of Reaper's Gale but I stopped because I became frustrated with the new characters, storylines, and other new strange things happening in the book. I simply stopped caring. Also, I didn't enjoy The Bonehunters very much so that kind of tired me out from the whole series.
But throughout the months after quitting this series, I did think about returning to from it time to time because I enjoyed the weird world within the series. And there were quite a few characters I liked. So I've returned and started over again.
