I thought The darkness that comes before was enigmatic and dry.. after reading it and putting it down for awhile I got my hands on warrior prophet. I'm enthralled with the universe r scott bakker has created, from the perverse synthese to the blue eyed pious men of the tusk. After reading WP I starting reading bits and peices of information regarding the holy crusades. That's how I know this book is a winner, it inspired me to learn. Also I'm a HUGE tale of the malazan fan... I can't wait for book 6. "Our endeavours were far to fierce to know friendship" view post
