About this deal

This is at most a 400 pages book, this book contained 330k words and most of them are either repetition or a summary of the last books.

So a 2 star from me means,yes, I liked the book, and I'd loan it to a friend and it went everywhere in my jacket pocket or purse until I finished it.For instance the story line is no longer bound to Buckkeep but plays in the Six Dutchies instead and unlike in the first two books skilling is taking a huge part as well. The group encounter a road leading to a ruined city, both constructed of a black stone imbued with Skill.

Like I wrote in one of my status updates, the entire book (and trilogy) is about failure after failure after failure. But, three of them were completely useless and infuriating for the storyline, this includes Starling. Fitz and Nighteyes are joined by Starling, a minstrel, and Kettle, an old woman who is seeking the White Prophet.But anyway, if you’ve been keeping up with me, you’ll know that I absolutely love Robin Hobb’s Farseer Trilogy! La voie magique (L'Assassin royal 5) the 23rd of February 2017 from Audible Studios, length 12 hours and 36 minutes, narrated by Sylvain Agaësse. Other reviewers have pointed to a sense of hopelessness in the narrative and how often Hobb makes use of failure. Fitz deserves so much better than that and I really hope that one of the other books will finally give him the happy life he longed for!
