About book Forge Of Darkness (2012)

The book was breathtaking. It made me revisit the legends of our time and look at them as real persons. Steven Ericson still manages to write morose, sombre, and dismal tone that would almost make you want to cry and curl up on the floor at the meaninglessness of life. Steven Ericson is not Fisher; he is, in fact, Gothos. And he is still writing Gotho's Folly, and we get to get a glimpse of him through this book. This is the first time I've read anything by Erikson si I had no idea what to expect. Safe to say I was not disappointed. It has everything you could possibly want in an epic fantasy. Great worldbuilding in a wonderful setting, strange creatures and impending civil war. But its the characters that shine for me. Rich, detailed creations with flaws, insecurities, and most importantly history. Every character has a backstory, filled with regret and pain and everything else that makes up a life. So much so that they almost real. The triumph in this book for me is the shift in the dynamic of relationships throughout the book, especially among the Borderswords. All this adds up to make the book even more 'real'. Recommended for anyone who loves epic fantasy and true to life characters and who isn't afraid to work for it.
