Review: House of Chains

House of Chains House of Chains by Steven Erikson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Highly evocative, thrilling, shocking at most parts, comical and tres poignant.
Once more, SE introduces a dynamic duo (all of them are just superbly epic with perfect chemistry i don't know how Erikson does it!) that sticks to me as a reader.
We learn more about the CG, ST and how they move pieces, er, players around the board that is Raraku.
And the reunion. Man, that brought tears to my eyes. SO happy about the BB!
This was an easy read for me although it took me a long time to finish because i am swamped, i'm not even supposed to be reading anything except medical books but this was just a treat!
I may take a long break after this read OR slowly read MT like in a span of two months? LOL we will see. I definitely don't want to rust up my brain as a lot A LOT of characters are into play and plots buried within plots are easier to forget.

Definitely an ACE FANTASY read and series. No doubt.
