It would be hard not to compare this first entry in Abraham's epic fantasy series to the Malazan series by Erikson that I read last year, since there are quite a few setting and style elements in common, but that would be fairly unhelpful because for one, not many people have necessarily read all of the Malazan book of the fallen series (it's a lot...) and for two, numerous superficial symmetries aside, the Dagger and the Coin seems to have a lot going for it that the other does not - it's approachable / easy to read, for one, and thus far easier to recommend: I really liked it.
