Finished this he day before yesterday. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't one of the best I think. The Clip/Nimander storyline seemed to really drag.

Yeah, that isn't close to my favorite part of the series either.

Clip makes me crazy. I just want to swat him.

Ive made it this far, and finished Reapers Gale. Ive already commenced on the re-read of Dead House Gates, and will continue on until I reach this point again.

Oh man, you've gotta get on to Toll The Hounds. Very important book. (Oh, and Crimson Guard if you haven't read it yet.)

I have actually ( read the Return of the Crimson Guard), but the wife has decided that I cant be trusted with the Kindle account , so Toll the Hounds may have to wait.

That's crazy talk. You've only got three more books to go -- how much damage can that inflict?

Well, four, I guess, if you count Stonewielder....

Started Toll the Hounds this morning, I can be very convincing when I whine like a 3 year old.

Nicely done!

Awesome. It's got a couple big ones in it.

Well, rereading Reapers Gale. I'll be skimming Clip/Nimander/Udinas for sure.

I note Silchas Ruin points out that a god in pain is not the same as one obsessed with evil.

Is this the first clue?

Some of the quote-fu masters over at Malazanempire may say differently, but surely it must be one of the earliest clear hints.

I seem to remember something from Quick Ben before Ruin was an active character (OK, maybe it happened in book 6 after he was freed from the Azath and kicked some ass) but it's been too long.

Hmmm, I have some vague recollection, but not sure if Quick was talking about TCG specifically.

Y E S!! most emphatically so. there was also something that i believe paran said that was similar but i've no clue where it was. and i think quick ben may have dropped one as well but i could be just making that up in my head.

Paran's issue was something else entirely I think. Sanctioning the House of Chains.

TCG Spolier

Spoiler

I still don't think that being in pain exculpates him for his actions though.
