Publisher's Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of Midnight Tides: Malazan Book of the Fallen 5 by Steven Erikson, read by Michael Page.
After decades of warfare, the five tribes of the Tiste Edur have finally united under the implacable rule of the Warlock King of the Hiroth. But peace has been exacted at a terrible price - a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst deadly.
To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether has devoured all of its less-civilised neighbours with rapacious, cold-blooded hunger. All, that is, save one - the Tiste Edur. For Lether is approaching a long-prophesied renaissance - from kingdom and lost colony of the First Empire to Empire reborn. And so its people have fixed their avid gazes northward, to the rich and abundant lands and coasts of the Tiste Edur. And beneath the suffocating weight of gold, or by slaughter at the edge of a sword, it seems the Tiste Edur must fall. Or so Destiny has decreed.
As the gathering for a pivotal treaty between the two nears, ancient forces are awakening. For the impending struggle between these two civilisations is but a pale reflection of a far more profound, primal battle - a confrontation with the still-raw wound of an old betrayal and the craving for vengeance at its heart.
Among the Tiste Edur -- among Trull Sengar's people -- it is believed that the darkest hungers of the spirit arrive on the tides from the south, and these tides come at midnight...
War and betrayal, magic and myth collide in this, the stunning fifth chapter in Steven Erikson magnificent 'Malazan Book of the Fallen' sequence - a monumental achievement that is being hailed by readers and critics alike as an epic of the imagination and a fantasy classic in the making.

A masterpiece
Absolutely blown away by this one. After struggling initially with an all new cast of characters, I soon enough got into the flow of Midnight Tides. So much tragedy, gut-wrenching violence, philosophy, social commentary and, most surprisingly, laugh out loud comedy packed into this brilliant book. Just amazing!

Great story!
Although largely about new characters, the story was so enjoyable, a little different to the previous books from what i recall of them, lots of clever humour in this one, I don't recall laughing so much in the previous 4 books. The narrator was so good too, his delivery of the banter made it so much funnier than if I read it myself i recon.
Highly recommend.

The Funniest so Far!
Classic Malazan in so many ways, the chatacters, the world building, the plot all superb and just as emotionally charged and damaging as always. What made this one stand out for me is the humour. Came for Trull, stayed for Tehol. You'll see.

Didn't enjoy the accents used.
personal opinion only. the accents used I found grating, but they were at least consistently done.
