What people on Hacker News said
Highlights are the language, and that the story feels both very small and contained, and also all-encompassing, at the same time.
These were marvellous, well worth reading for any fans of Malazan/other fantasy or sci-fi.
And A Desolation Called Peace, or really that series, is one of my favorite SF reads of the last 10 years, I've recommended it often.
