Funny, that. While I liked the WOT and the first 3 books of ASOIAF, I practically fell asleep every time I tried to read
Gardens of the Moon. Made it through eventually, but no way will I read more from Erikson. Just not my cuppa, I guess. To me it seemed his story was more about the world and the plot than the characters, and that's why I was bored.
Not that Robert Jordan's characters are anywhere as good as Martin's are, but Erikson's seemed completely cardboard to me. YMMV.
