    First 2 were definitely dense. You'll need that information though. Yes, they get better and more swiftly paced.

      It is. But Erikson got me at book 2 with Coltaine and all. Book 3 is EPIC.

      Then book 4 introduces a giant barbarian with a wooden sword you saw a bit in book 2. And he's awesome.

      It's dense, but Erickson assumes you'll follow. I'll re-read everything after The Crippled God.

        Ordered the Tameire (sp) books over the weekend, and they should show up at my hotel today.

          Temeraire is a good read-by-the-beach book. Nothing to create a fuss about, but it's Master & Commander, with dragons. I've read the 1st 3 books, and I don't know if I'll chase the others.

            Yea, I scored the first 3 for $12. For some reason I thought it was highly recommended in this thread, so I ordered it, then got on here and apparently was thinking of something else. Oh well, got plenty of time to check them out.

              They aren't bad but definitely decline in quality.
