Steven Erikson answers questions from readers like me

The Malazan Reread of the Fallen on tor.com came to an end with The Cripple God. They went through all the 10 books of main sequence and Ian Cameron Esslemont's Malazan Empire books that took part before The Crippled God with Bill going through actual reread while Amanda was reading the books for the first time. The wrap post that sums up the hosts reactions mirror a lot of my own thoughts. When io9 asked recently about books that people fell in love with my answer was Gardens of the Moon as it made me want to read fantasy (especially epic fantasy) again and the Malazan Books of the Fallen series is what I judge the whole genre by (nothing had the same impact and/or scope but there were some fun books there).

To celebrate the end Steven Erikson did Q&A (with a pretty great preamble) and as always his answers make it all even better.

It sad to see it end but there are still ICE's Malazan Empire books that take part after the end of The Crippled God and the Kharkhanas Trilogy and eventually Karsa's books. So hopefully they will continue with that.
