Now if only those 10000 pages were good...
In all honesty I love Malazan but I can't read more than half a book at a stretch. Too much happens, too many characters.(And I'm halfway through book 4.) Beautifully intricate in the same way a pit full of carved diamond spikes is beautiful. It hurts.
And I disagree. The stories need to end, the characters need to move on. The worlds need to live. Breathe. Adapt and change. I think maybe that's it though. Sometimes a world is so wonderfully unique that I just want to know more about it and explore past what the writer gives me. I suppose that's why I write. And the appeal of fanfiction... Now if only there was a reliable way to find quality fanfic...
