Erikson’s rich characterization extends to every character within the story, creating a compelling read no matter whose point of view the reader is experiencing. These interactions are written naturally and come across with the familiarity of friends that have fought together for years. The squad members of the Bridgeburners define themselves through their interactions with one another. The story centers primarily around The Bridgeburners, a squad of soldiers in the Malazan Army and their exploits during a particular campaign.ĭrawing inspiration primarily from Glen Cook’s “The Black Company,” character interactions are the primary focus of many chapters.
Initially written years before the following books, “Gardens of the Moon” features a much tighter focus narratively than the others. “Gardens of the Moon,” written by Steven Erikson and published in 1999, is the first installment in the Malazan Book of the Fallen series and lays the foundation for the rest of the series to build on.
