I’m a purist, so always want to read things in the way that the author intended.
Some people enjoyed taking a break from the intensity of the Farseer storyline, and others were so into it they wanted to jump forward and then come back to Liveships. If anyone else is debating this, it seems a matter of preference. But I was well-convinced that it was worth leaving Fitz behind for a while, to focus on Bingtown and its inhabitants. There was some googling required after finishing the Farseer series it seems that some people crack straight on with the Tawny Man Series, which follows on from Farseer.
So I will accept the size and the wrist-ache that came from reading them one after the other. I briefly wondered whether they could have been a quartet instead of a trilogy, but the stories work so well in the current format. Me and the bloke mostly read these on holiday in Portugal so they really suffered from being stuffed in bags, and half buried in sand (and wine). You… you would rather go naked into the storm.’Īs my Robin Hobb reviews tend to be overly gushy, I thought I would review them as a trilogy, so any readers out there who aren’t fussed on fantasy can skip over this one! I really enjoyed one reviewers point that it only takes two readings for these books (that are huge by the way) to look battered. ‘Many will rant and rave against the garment fate has woven for them, but they pick it up and don it all the same, and most wear it to the end of their days.
