Mehso-so

I struggle with this one.

I didn't connect with any of the characters, in fact I kept thinking that if it weren't for Kyle (who I hate, by the way) this whole story wouldn't exist.

The slow pace, character driven plot just didn't grab me like the Farseer Trilogy did.

However, I understand that Hobb develops her stories over time, and I can see a lot of potential in this trilogy and its importance in the overall Elderling series.

Enchanted_Bibliophile @PuddleJumper I know I'm way behind on the #RealmOfElderlings timetable, but I'm going to try my best to catch up before the end of the year. 1mo
Ruthiella Kyle is despicable. But there is good character development in this trilogy, especially with Malta IMO. 1mo

PuddleJumper Kyle is the absolute worst. He is a catalyst for the other characters and plot but yeah, it's hard sometimes when nearly everything goes back to one character. I've totally lost the plot with where we are! I think this book was for Sep/Oct and last one is Nov/Dec. I'm very behind as well 1mo
Enchanted_Bibliophile @Ruthiella I can't wait to see that, she really got the spoiled little teenage brat going strong in this one. 1mo
Enchanted_Bibliophile @PuddleJumper Glad to hear it's not just me 😊 1mo

It's taken me about a year to get through this. Though not as fast paced as the previous two it had a resonance and a reflective nature that I enjoyed after I had settled into the pace of it.
Highly recommend and a fitting end to this amazing trilogy.

Hi Everyone! I have missed you all and all the news about what you are reading. At the same time it's a lot. Along with everything else. So I had to check out for awhile. But I just passed my 9th #Litsyversary a few weeks back so I just wanted to check in and see how things were going. I hope you all have been well and gotten some good reading done! This is the #chunkster I am currently working on. Well worth the length!

Librarybelle Good to see you! 2mo
