The Malazan series is one of my favorites. I read the series a few years ago, and now I've been listening to the audiobooks as they become available on Audible. I think Erikson coming from a background in archaeology gives his books a very unique feel to them, especially dealing with different societies and the way they interact with each other. Not to mention the ongoing allusions to previous cultures whose influence can still be felt.

Also listened to the first book in the Karkanas Trilogy, and I'm looking forward to the other two in the series.
