Steven Erikson’s Deadhouse Gates doesn’t so much invite you into its world as drag you behind a galloping horse and demand that you keep up. The second Malazan Book of the Fallen novel is bigger, darker and considerably less interested in holding your hand, throwing assassins, empires, gods, ancient grudges and one spectacularly brutal desert crossing into the same literary blender. Yet beneath all the bloodshed and battlefield chaos is something surprisingly human: a story about loyalty, suffering, vengeance and what people are willing to endure for one another. And just when you think you’ve figured out where Erikson is taking you, he cheerfully sets fire to the map.
