I’d never heard of malazan and was planning on picking up wheel of time. This series seems a but more ASOIAF than WoT does though. Should I read it? I want a series where main characters can and do die at any second not just like a straightforward good vs evil narrative where the good guy always pulls something out of his/their ass

Evidently not, but they are trying to make careers as influencers and writers, so it is grim that they are listened to more than people would want to read (at least by a large enough contingent that they have a following that listen to them).

Nah, it's not.

Nah, you don't.

>I want a series where main characters can and do die at any second not just like a straightforward good vs evil narrative where the good guy always pulls something out of his/their ass
It's not "straightforward good vs evil narrative", instead it's "anime edge vs anime edge". All the key characters do have plot armor though, and there are literally NO plot developments other than "this guy pulled this out of his ass so that guy pulled that out of his ass".

>Characters can die at any second
Yes.... But it should be said that in malazan there are several ways to return from death, however deaths in malazan always (so far) has meant the person is permanently changed.

>Seems more like ASOIAF
No unless the only thing you talk about here is that characters die. Malzan is high fantasy featuring things like: Flying castles,Shapeshifting,Multiple "dimensions",Big magic battles

>Clear cut good/evil
Nope. There are of course charachters that do evil and very little (if any) good. But they always have their own motivations and if you saw it from their pov they might not be evil at all.

As for WOT vs Malazan almost everyone online who says they have read both seem to agree that Malzan is the better series so there that aswell. But malazan is a harder read then WOT if that matters to you. (The difficulty of reading Malazan is severly overhyped however, its no harder then it is to read dune.)

Didn't think I'd be so out of touch because Botns and Elric are hands down some of the best fantasy written ever.

Maybe they took Botns to be sci fi?

Glad Discworld got a shout or 3 though. But I think that's cheating. Saying you think Discworld best is like saying your favourite rock album is 100 Greatest Rock Hits. Yes it's good, but it's good because it takes the piss out of all the other stuff.
