À propos de cet audio

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Memories of Ice: Malazan Book of the Fallen 3 by Steven Erikson, read by Ralph Lister.

The ravaged continent of Genabackis has given birth to a terrifying new empire: the Pannion Domin. Like a fanatical tide of corrupted blood, it seethes across the land, devouring all who fail to heed the Word of its elusive prophet, the Pannion Seer. In its path stands an uneasy alliance: Dujek Onearm's Host and the Bridgeburners ­ each now outlawed by the Empress ­ alongside their enemies of old including the grim forces of Warlord Caladan Brood, Anomander Rake, Son of Darkness, and his Tiste Andii, and the Rhivi people of the Plains.
But more ancient clans too are gathering. As if in answer to some primal summons, the massed ranks of the undead T'lan Imass have risen. For it would seem something altogether darker and more malign threatens the very substance of this world. The Warrens are poisoned and rumours abound of the Crippled God, now unchained and intent on a terrible revenge...

Marking the return of many favourite characters from GARDENS OF THE MOON and introducing a host of remarkable new players, MEMORIES OF ICE is a thrilling new chapter in Erikson's magnificent epic fantasy and another triumph of storytelling.

The most heartbreaking

On my third trip through the series, the tears come no matter where I am listening. The telling of the tale deepens the sorrow of the telling in ways that will surprise you.
Knowing how it all ends does not diminish the telling in any way. There is joy in the story, appreciation for the masterful telling, and one of the best performances of any book I have listened to. The story is masterful in its complexity and its simplicity.
Do yourself a favour and listen to the whole series at least twice, but give yourself a few years in between.
On to the next tale.

Amazing story, less than mediocre reading

Wonderful story, Steven Erikson weaves a master piece. The narrator is fine most of the time, however a select few of his voices are stilting, aggravating to listen to, and almost make the story unlistenable. Pronunciations of basic words, and characters names can grate on the listener, and this incredible series deserves a better audio performance.

This book shows what this series really has to offer you

This is my second read-through of the Malazan books, the first on paper about 6 years ago, and now this one by audiobook. I’ve put reviews up for Gardens of the Moon, Deadhouse Gates, and Night of Knives if you want to check those out too.

This book has amazing action. The first third is pretty slow, but gives a good taste of what is happening in the broader scheme of things outside the specific events you’ve seen so far. Then it hits hard with 2 huge battles, which are described just so very well. I’ve found these authors do 3 things superbly, and all 3 are on display here: amazing action descriptions (it sometimes feels like you’re reading an action anime); great perspective on the mindset of a soldier; and they tie together everything that happens throughout the book into a clean climax really well.
The one thing I’ll say about this book that is a little strange compared to all the others, is for the last half, there only seems to be one group of characters that is being focused on. Normally there’s at least 2 distinct sets of characters with their own action happening, and they converge at the end, but the converging happens a little earlier in this one. Still an amazing, bloody, satisfying climax.

I have the same complaints about Ralph Lister as the narrator as I did in my review for Deadhouse Gates. Repeated here:
- It feels like this is his first time reading the book so he sometimes doesn’t have the right tone or expression
- He mixes up character voices and misses entire lines of dialogue a few times, which can be jarring
- There is not enough of a pause for paragraph breaks between character perspectives, which gets confusing
- He still adds “they thought” everytime there is italicized writing from the book (indicating internal dialogue instead of spoken). This wouldn’t be so bad if they mixed it up a little, but just “they thought” everytime is as boring and repetitive as “they said” after each spoken line would be.
He still does a pretty good job overall, and his voices are great. I’m still excited to try someone new for the rest of the series after this one. While writing this, I’m about 1/6 of the way into House of Chains, and I much prefer the new narrator (basically solves all of the above complaints). I’ve given Lister a 3 on this one, back up from the 2 I gave in Deadhouse Gates.

This book is amazing, and completely worth struggling through the start of this series for (I won’t pretend it isn’t challenging, albeit rewarding because of the challenge). Memories of Ice really shows exactly how awesome this series can be for its action and absolute scale.

narrator has issues

Bad narration. The author has this thing about infuriating annoying characters like cropper, felicine and in this one the maibe begging for death/pity. I could understand begging for death in her condition but begging for pity was weird.
