Hello everyone,

I read GotM, Deadhouse Gates, MoI and HoC a few years ago before I had some big changes in my life and reading kind of got pushed aside. I want to start back up with Midnight Tides but unfortunately I forget a lot of the details from the first four books. Is there anywhere I can find a quick recap of all the major events that have happened so far?

No quick recaps, but chapter-by-chapter summaries are here: http://www.tor.com/s...-of-the-fallen/

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Visit the Wiki - we don't have all the chapters summarized as yet but GotM and MoI are completed and we are about half-way into DG. Some summaries are more in depth than others...

If you look at the following table - the green ones are done:

Hope this helps

I'm in a similiar boat, I have read the first 3 twice now, and now moving onto Midnight Tides. It's been a little bit since I did read them, but, I think with this series, you'll never remember everything. It's impossible. It's a series, from what I have read over the Net, is that you get new insights as the you re-read the series.

Erikson, writes it like it's real history, and who remembers every single little detail?

I say, go for it, and enjoy the ride..

If you've read the first three only, you should read House of Chains first before you go to Midnight Tides. HoC is part 4, MT is part 5.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

Oops. I have read House of Chains. Just read the one time. I did start it a second time but felt I remembered enough not to finish.

I just gotta make sure when i start midnight tides is that I don't pause between books for so long.
