I bought signed hardback editions from Wesley Chu directly. That's how much I have enjoyed this series.

It's probably one of my fave series over the last decade. Just wildly unique, while also being just filled to the brim with interesting characters of all kinds.

Got my order in for Malazan books 4-6 via Broken Binding.

Anyone who missed books 1-3, apparently they are doing a 3rd print run with purchases available 1st September in the Dragons Hoard section of the website - https://thebrokenbindingsub.com/

Agreed on all points, just a great well written fantasy story, i am VERY psyched to read the finale.

My copy arrived safely on my doorstep today. Now I need to find time to read the sequel AND this one.

So I was listening to one of the interviews with SE on the Ten Very Big Books podcast and he mentioned a chap called Tim Powers who writes speculative/historical fiction and he really recommended them.

I found out Anubis Gates was only £2.99 on Kindle so I have purchased it! Dunno when I'll fit it into my TRPFH but I'm definitely intrigued!

I wouldn't be worthy of such an honour, worry!

Though thinking about it, it would be cool to have a book signed by the forum regs haha.

To quantify something is to assign a number to it.

Graham's number is a number.

It's even computable. So our observable universe isn't big enough to contain a representation of it in digits---so what? With the inflation we're likely to have...

But to really win you over (and get back on topic for a moment)... the book I bought most recently: audiobook of A Day of Fallen Night---prequel to The Priory of the Orange Tree (:::maniacal laughter::: )....
