The following contains full spoilers for Gardens of the Moon and light hints about the rest of The Malazan Book of the Fallen.

Matt and Chris join up once again for another installment of the Sandee Boyz… this time to discuss the second half of Steven Erikson’s Gardens of the Moon. Topics include favorite charcaters so far, Chris’s spidey sense for foreshadowing, debates about whether Raest was a good payoff after a book of setup, Kruppe impressions, the downsides of listening to audiobooks, Erikson’s decision to throw away big moments in brief sentences, Matt’s waxing about how the series is on re-read, and vague hints towards the future.

Then, the two discuss what Sanderson has revealed so far about Ghostbloods and boy is it some doozies.
