I second that. Hellian's parts are a little overkill for me. It was amusing at first but now it's become too unbelievable...yes...even for fantasy :D



I'm not sure I like her, but I enjoy her POV. If that makes any sense.
I like how vague it feels. How she seems to stumble through major events in a drunken haze and it takes a little bit of effort on my part to figure out who she is talking to and how it affects the story as a whole.
Just kind of a cool plot device.

I'm actually strangely attracted to Hellian, especially in Reaper's Gale. Oh well
She's probably my first Malazan crush (: not quite sure what that says about me though! (Other then I have impeccable taste of course!)


We have the word of several characters that Masan Gilani has a much nicer butt.

Just sayin'.

I agree. I've got nothing against her drunkenness, but making it all the way through enemy territory with minimal losses and general success seems a bit much.

EDIT: Thought I'd posted here, so here's the list.

Telorast
Curdle
Sirryn Kanar/Slimcue Slimeball
Clip
Hannan Mosag
Apsalar (sometimes)
Felisin
Hetan (sometimes)
Lady Envy (sometimes)
Spite
Pust (sometimes)
Suck it Errant!

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Felisin, by far the most annoying character to read about.. And she gets even worse being Sha'ik. Heboric is also kind of a pain to read... And the mhybe of course.

my vote is for Bidithal, slimy piece of lung butter. Then Felisin.

I hate Silchas.

[breath][rant]
He's just such a bum, and then everyone is all giving him excuses like "He's just thinking draconean" or some crap like that. But they're wrong to enable him like that. Just because he's the third kid in the family who looks just like his father and therefore is a constant reminder to his entire race that the father they deny is indeed their father, doesn't mean he can't maintain some half-decent manners and try *not* leading people like Seren Pedac on long quests just to kill them at the destination despite the fact that he could've gotten there without her and left her to live quietly in Lether somewhere instead.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

I suppose you could be right. But Silchas had a deal going with the Azath, so perhaps one of the terms was "All other concerns are secondary."

Oh yeah, Feather Witch FTL.

I hate Udinass and I always will. He's a self-righteous knob - like myself

Whiskeyjack. I just can't stand "goodie goodie heroes", and the whole subplot with Korlat was just unnecessary not to mention came out of the blue with little explanation. I'm glad Kallor did him in.

The entire Sengar family also annoyed the heck out of me. Yes, even Trull.

And of course Korbolo Dom, Bidithal, etc

Karsa. I found his POV extremely distasteful.

Apart from him I don't particularly hate anyone but it is true that the whole Whiskeyjack - Korlat romance thing came out of the blue. Lamest romance in Malazan. Even Hellian and Urb (I think that's the name) have more spark.

For reading:

1. Mhybe. The only part of the series I have ever skipped over.
2. Kruppe, the first time through a book. Get to the point Kruppe! This, I think, is intentional. So I forgive it.
3. Felisin Paran. So spiteful.

As characters:

1. Mallick Rel
Pormqual (for being a coward)
Leoman
The Warlock King (someone has to be the fall guy for that mess)
Taralack Veed

Felisin. Irratating, malicious bitch.
Clip, because his ego is actually the size of a Warren.
Cutter, because he's emo thru and thru.
Korbolo Dom. Bastard just annoys me.

Lastly, the Errant, just BECAUSE OF TRULL!!!!

I would have said Rhulad all the way through MT, but now I really like his story and how he is portrayed. :D

So I'd go for Mhybe! :p
