I also read the first book in the Malazan series and it was quite daunting. They say his prose isn't easy to get into and that is right. He doesn't hold your hand a tiny bit, you need to read it with focus and concentration. Even the poems have meaning and pay off later. I couldn't bring myself to continue the series yet, but I intend on it one day.

I know its sacrilegious but I've never been able to get into Jordan. I read the first book and never got to the second.

I feel the same way you do about Malazan, never finished the first book.
