[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 4057916, member: 2525"] First, I had the same problem you did. The first half of the first book was really bad in my opinion (though in retrospect better than I thought at the time). I just grit my teeth and bared it until I finally got to the good part about half way through (though I also failed the first time through, and restarted it years later). I now love the series however, despite it's many flaws. You do not need to read them all in order. However, some are directly related to others. They are continent-themed for the most part. You could start with Deadhouse Gates, then go to House of Chains, then Bonehunters (I believe). Those are all "subcontinent of Seven Cities" themed. Meanwhile, Gardens of the Moon and Memories of Ice are "continent of Genabackis" themed. A third possible entry point is apparently Midnight Tides, which is apparently on yet a third continent (and earlier than the first book in the series). [/QUOTE]
