1/5⭐ I was willing to give it a chance despite not connecting with the characters but stopped 10% in at the casual pet murder and an idiot adult expecting a 6 year old to understand what he was talking about without any explanation. #roll100

Well, that was quite a ride! Robin Hobb is an incredible storyteller (as a rarely-reads fantasy, big books or series reader, I‘ve finished the trilogy in 9 months, which is quite bizarre!). She‘s just kept pulling me back in. And (eventually) we even got dragons.
Time for a few months away, but I‘ll definitely be back to this world and (presumably.some of) these characters.
“You are confusing plumbing and love. Again. “
Yes, I‘m still going with Fitz & (thankfully) The Fool. Robin Hobb is a master storyteller. I‘d decided I was DEFINITELY giving up after this book. Buuut… I‘ll probably need to carry on after a (long) break. She‘s kind of genius.
9 hours left, and 7 days before Libby eats the audiobook. I REALLY don‘t want to be left with waiting for 3 weeks for the final 90 minutes! (Ramps up speed to x2.5 😬)

On one hand, it‘s still keeping my interest.
On the other hand, I keep deciding I‘ve had enough of the series now.
And yet I‘m still going.
**FOR ANOTHER 25 HOURS ⏰**
I‘ve thoroughly dissected my issues with epic fantasy (notably its epicness 🙄. Also, for a book called Assassin‘s Quest, there‘s way too much assassining. And questing).
But my main issue right now, is WHERE ARE THE DRAGONS???
I‘m really not a very good fantasy reader. Sorry!

🎧 Not sure why I waited so long to listen to this book. It‘s captivating & easy to read! If you liked the first book you‘ll enjoy this one also. BOOK 2 of The Farseer Trilogy.
There are characters to love & hate! Interesting magic! A good character driven series so far. Hoping to read book 3 next weekend!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+
1. Gaaaah! (Actually it might be fine. There should be at least one picture book I can return. Don‘t ask.)
2. What have you done to me? I don‘t read fantasy, I don‘t read chunksters, and I‘m rubbish at series. And yet here we are. And it‘s not even May. I hold you all entirely responsible for this peculiar behaviour.
3. How many hours? Bit scared to look….
