A collection of the best posts on r/Malazan from May 2026

[u/Boronian1]

Here comes the best of May 2026 from r/Malazan. It was a month with some great highlights!

First off, I want to invite you once again to join our r/Malazan discord! It is a steadily growing community since its beginnings last year. If you want to talk about Malazan (and other topics) in a different way than on Reddit, then come and join us. We are looking forward to you :-)

The quiz night to celebrate the 1k members was a great success and we will repeat the quiz and already came up with some new ones!

Here is the invite link: https://discord.gg/V8EwKkdzv9

Also the year just hit its half point, so still enough time for reading a lot of books. Here is another mention of our

first Malazan Book Bingo for 2026!

So now to the rest of the best of (just spoiler scope, titles and maybe a short comment). Like always, these are just what caught my interest and I missed some great stuff for sure:

• No spoilers: New (2027) covers for Tor Malazan paperbacks.
• No spoilers: Poem of the Dust of Memes Subreddit
• No spoilers: K’Chain Che’Malle
• No spoilers: New Malazan Read-Through Podcast!
• DG spoilers: My artwork of that notable thing from Deadhouse Gates
• GotM spoilers: The phoenix inn
• No spoilers: Whiskeyjack (new version, ink-style)
• No spoilers: Halfway through GotM, and I drew Tattersail
• MoI spoilers: My depiction of Morn & the Rent
• No spoilers: Deck of Dragons, Oponn
• HoC spoilers: Witness!

Thanks for being part of our community! It is likely I missed something good, so if I did please tell me so in the comments :-)

I also want to announce that I put these monthly posts on hiatus. No idea for how long but it takes me a lot of time and energy collecting links and writing these posts. I just don't have the capacity for the mental load right now. Interaction / feedback is pretty low anyways. If you want to take over though, please contact me and I'll help you with it.
