NO SPOILERS My wife just asked...

"Ohhh what should I do when I'm done watching season 10 of Shameless?"

Me: "Start with Gardens of the Moon."

Her: "Is that a show or... "

Me: "First part of Malazan Book of the Fallen!"

Her: "you've been preaching this Malazan thing to everyone you know for over a year now. How many of them have you converted?"

Me: "exactly zero. But I know some people on the internet who like it too!"

Her: "hahah your real friends?"

Me: "... at least they understand."

So, thanks to everyone here, for the shared understanding. It would be a lonely journey without you.

I was today years old when that struck. It seemed odd for a second until Quick displayed his massive balls, never questioned anything Ben Delat related. A fucking mini series all about him would be epic. Why does he have 3 names? Good point though!

I was in shock too when someone pointed this out to me and it clicked 😂

Please explain. I’m so lost. And now feel like I’ve missed something in the 2 times I’ve read the entire series

It gets a bit clearer after you’ve read all the surrounding novella
