Publisher's Summary
Now is the time to tell the story of an ancient realm, a tragic tale that sets the stage for all the tales yet to come and all those already told....
It's a conflicted time in Kurald Galain, the realm of Darkness, where Mother Dark reigns. But this ancient land was once home to many a power…and even death is not quite eternal. The commoners' great hero, Vatha Urusander, is being promoted by his followers to take Mother Dark's hand in marriage, but her Consort, Lord Draconus, stands in the way of such ambitions. The impending clash sends fissures throughout the realm, and as the rumors of civil war burn through the masses, an ancient power emerges from the long dead seas. Caught in the middle of it all are the First Sons of Darkness, Anomander, Andarist, and Silchas Ruin of the Purake Hold...
Steven Erikson entered the pantheon of great fantasy writers with his debut, Gardens of the Moon. Now he returns with the first novel in a trilogy that takes place millennia before the events of the Malazan Book of the Fallen and introduces readers to Kurald Galain, the warren of Darkness. It is the epic story of a realm whose fate plays a crucial role in shaping the world of the Malazan Empire.

Enjoyable
Although I enjoyed this story and the narration is good, I found it harder to follow due to the general tone of the narrator. The different voices are good but when the story swaps to a new section & characters I find the sameness makes it harder to follow. I kept having to backtrack. This book may have been easier as a read rather than a listen. Excellent story giving a background to the beginnings of some of the main characters from the books of the Malazan empire.

awesome!
I was a big fan of Malazan and put off reading these books for a while. I am very glad I picked them up, it's interesting finding how do many ancient beings in MBotF came to be. Very well written and the narrator does a fantastic job!
