Crack'd Pot Trail (2000) - Plot & Excerpts

Canterbury Tales meets cannibalism meets rampant sexual humor. Yup. This series of books is interesting, because Bauchelain and Broach never feel like they fit in the Malazan world. However, this book which has really nothing to do with Bauchelain and Broach, feels much more in the style of the Malazan series, mostly because of it's often rather morbid sense of humor. It's probably a poor sign the that book I have enjoyed the most so far is the one that is least involving the main characters, but we'll see how the next books go and whether it can better weave together the two necromancers into the rest of the world. I'm worried to see that so many of Erikson's fans do not see the brillance in this short book. It makes me wonder if those people really understand some parts of the Malazan books, especially the funny/selfconscious banter. This particular novella might be his best yet, although to be honest, I don't think I could handle 1000 pages of this! Works perfectly well in a short format, though. If you like Kruppe, you'll love this. If not, well..As I said before, while I like Esslemont too, his writing often feels like "Erikson for dummies". Crack'd Pot Trail is Erikson for intellectuals in a metatextual way. Screw the critics, screw the fans, they know nothing.
