Thanks for doing this. I read Gardens of the Moon a couple years ago, and I’d like to go on with the series but I’d rather not have to re-read GotM before beginning Deadhouse Gates. Videos like this one help with recalling the major events/characters.

Man great to hear someone talking about this series. Do more!

[Purgatory]

Thank you for the refresher! I am in book 3 now and wanted a quick recap and this was great!

[dddis]

Extremely well done summary. Need more of these!

[Guskiller]

I need a video like this for every book in the series 😅

[davidrobertson]

Thanks Miro. That was a very good recap. I remember being quite confused while reading this, and your recap helped me understand it a bit better.

[ibrock]

Nice synopsis! A great resource ... looking forward to ' summary!

[aerialruin]

Thanks, cool summary, just today finished Gardens.

[Bkoska]

Great thanks for this and really well summarised. I’m about to go on Holiday, bringing Deadhouse Gates with me and this video was the perfect summary I needed as a reminder of events in Gotm

Cool. Just finished reading it and wanted to check my understanding!

The first book I read in the series when I was in my 8th grade was "Reaper's Gale". I couldn't understand what was going on but I kept on reading 😂😂..anyway, fast forward in my twenties I challenged my self to pick up "Gardens of the Moon" and to my surprise I liked it, in fact my favourite character was Anomander Rake.

Thank you for doing this. This series is definitely a lot to take in.

This series is like a textbook that you don't want to read but you kinda want to read. And while doing so have to make notes about each event and characters to latter analyze for answers.

Did you hear about or read The Prince of Nothing trilogy?

'Lord of the Rings + A Game of Thrones + Dune + Nietzsche = R. Scott Bakker's "The The Second Apocalypse"' (TPoN is first trilogy of trilogies from that)
There's a YT 'trailer' for TSA and apparently Erikson said "Take note, one and all, something remarkable has begun here..." (maybe about 1st book).

Honestly, I feel like Gardens is not that hard to understand. Though concepts are thrown at you, they do explain a fair bit of them, or at least the rudimentary working of them.

It does have its faults; what first book doesn't? But overall, in my personal opinion, it's a real enjoyable read.

Thanks, its good reminder before second book.

Nice review
I have read gardens of the moon recently and it was a wonderful journey (in my native language).I want very much continued with series but unfortunately the following do not exist, so the vocabulary is quite difficult for me, i am almost onto B2 level

[samuelleask]

Bro this was great, thank you so much! I finished Gardens of the Moon yesterday and it was a blast, but I did have a hard time working out what was going on sometimes 😂😂😂
