I'm starting to suspect it's ded-thread time for DCC.
Happy to see you joining us though. I don't think you'll regret this. -

They just dump your ass right in the middle of a conflict and just go go go from there huh? You just pick up the lore and magic and characters on the go, but it doesnt feel forced or difficult, digging it so far
Sometimes it's funny to me how often people on this board end up reading the same thing at almost the same time without planning it. I'm currently working on THE AUTUMN REPUBLIC (book 3) in audio.
I'm curious to see what you think at the end of the first book. I have thoughts about some of the stuff the author plays with but it's best left alone until the end of book 1. -

Apparently they just launched a DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL webcomic up on webtoons. I just finished the first episode and am pretty much guaranteed to binge everything available immediately. If you've been on the fence about trying this series this is a great opportunity to dip your toes in.
Just in case it wasn't clear, that means you Abyss. -

I'm not sure why. It just didn't really interest me - I got about 150 pages in so it's not as though I didn't give it a good go.
I may come back to it if I feel inclined but I have so many books to read I just want to read something that actually interests me.
So I'm going to read The Mortal Word, book 5 in Genevieve Cogman's Invisible Library series.
Donaldson is slow burning. Covenant is... quite the character. I get tempted to reread from time to time, and then immediately realize why it is a slow-burner. I read this during my first year of law school and it was actually quite enjoyable as an escape from case briefs.
Still haven't finished the last series but overall it has some wonderful concepts. It's magic the old school way and not the Sanderson way where it's more science than art.
It's such an interesting series and it can be hard to read with the levels of bleakness and despair that it drops to. The highs of that series are so damn high though. I think a lot of the philosophy and themes of Malazan were laid out for me through the Covenant books and set the stage for me to be much more appreciative of Malazan when I got there later. My love for Foamfollower set the stage for my love of Itkovian, for example.
