About this ebook
The second novel in Steven Erikson's groundbreaking fantasy series. With millions of copies in print, the New York Times bestselling Malazan Book of the Fallen series is truly an empire—one of the most iconic and celebrated series in epic fantasy.
In the vast dominion of Seven Cities, in the Holy Desert Raraku, the seer Sha'ik and her followers prepare for the long-prophesied uprising known as the Whirlwind. Unprecedented in size and savagery, this maelstrom of fanaticism and bloodlust will embroil the Malazan Empire in one of the bloodiest conflicts it has ever known, shaping destinies and giving birth to legends . . .
Set in a brilliantly realized world ravaged by dark, uncontrollable magic, Deadhouse Gates is a novel of war, intrigue and betrayal that confirms Steven Eirkson as a storyteller of breathtaking skill, imagination and originality―a master of epic fantasy.

Another great fantasy book in the series. A much easier read than the first, in part because it is more localized to a subset of characters, but still not as easy as the third (which I just finished).

But this was my least favorite book of the series, even though it's probably the most important to the story. Fight your way through this one and you'll be rewarded the rest of the way.

The scale and ambition of the book almost overwhelm on the first read, but the depth of the world created is matched by meticulous planning on Erikson's part. Read the book once to take in the story, then again after finishing the series to fully appreciate how the complex stories told in the book are all interwoven.
