Forge of the High Mage
- Brand: Unbranded
Description
One minor criticism that I have with Forge to the High Mage, though, is that we spend less page time with the duo of Kellanved and Dancer, whose interactions are always memorable. If you haven't read any of the main series by the authors yet, I very highly recommend that you do, you won't regret it.
Here in the Ice Wastes and among the islands of Falar, the Empire of Malaz faces two seemingly insurmountable tests - each one potentially the origin of its destruction.He’s not my favorite overpowered mage in the Malazan universe, but this volume does well to humanize him a bit. It is still very enjoyable, especially because we have all of the old guard (Kellanved, Dancer, Dassem, Tayschrenn etc) and we get to see them in action.
I have read every single book that has been released to date in the Malazan universe from both Ian C Esslement and Steven Erikson (well except Upon a Dark of Evil Overlords which in all his eccentricity Erikson decided to release just his handwritten notes and at the moment is not available as an actual book). Die meisten Charaktere sind dem Leser schon bekannt und der Leser des Book of the Fallen weiß natürlich wo die Geschichte hinführt, aber einige Lücken werden zufriedenstellend gefüllt und auch die ein oder andere Unklarheit im Gesamtbild wird beseitigt. Either way the threads between the two are beginning to tie together in a way that only Malazan books do.By the time of a March 2022 interview, the writing was completed and the manuscript was in the hands of his editors. It will make you laugh, cry, leave you in awe, and there are so many characters for you to fall in love with and hate with a vengeance. A great character gets a cameo and the guy we thought it would be about (fuck you Mallick) gets some page time, perhaps not in the way you would think, but he is certainly true to form.
