The Malazan Fallen discussion

It was a good ending. It just wasn't great. First off the entire book is about the storm wall, the storm riders and the Lady and yet the confrontation is glossed over, WTF? I wanted the riders over the wall fighting the storm guard and the lady hurl lightening bolts at them. Granted it came from other characters but I want to see the storm riders unleashed.

Second, Greymane is just stuck as the guardian at the bottom? What a missed opportunity to have one of those SE heart-searing empathetic moments. (More on this in the epilogue).

Bars crushing Ussu's windpipe was might satisfying. You have to give SE and ICE props for not killing off the villains like Kallor and Mallick when you're so ready for it.

Skinner escaping with more power for the Crippled God was a brilliant unexpected story line to be continued later. Loved Blues telling Bars that's up to Kaz.
