This book took me 2 years to finish. No joke. However, when I picked it up again and read the last 400 pages, it wasn't nearly as bad as I remembered. I'm not sure it was worth it to read the whole series, but now that I have I may continue on to the next series (The Tawny Man) that is supposed to follow. Again, a very good book by Robin Hobb. It continues in the style of her other assassin books, and explains more about how everything has come to pass. The ending is good and satisfying, I just found that the life Fitz chooses for himself in the wrap-up is a bit disappointing. It doesn't seem like him somehow. no reviews | add a review
Fantasy.
Fiction.
Literature.
From an extraordinary voice in fantasy comes the stunning conclusion to the Farseer trilogy, as FitzChivalry confronts his destiny as the catalyst who holds the fate of the kingdom of the Six Duchies...and the world itself. King Shrewd is dead at the hands of his son Regal. As is Fitz-or so his enemies and friends believe. But with the help of his allies and his beast magic, he emerges from the grave, deeply scarred in body and soul. The kingdom also teeters toward ruin: Regal has plundered and abandoned the capital, while the rightful heir, Prince Verity, is lost to his mad quest-perhaps to death. Only Verity's return-or the heir his princess carries-can save the Six Duchies. But Fitz will not wait. Driven by loss and bitter memories, he undertakes a quest: to kill Regal. The journey casts him into deep waters, as he discovers wild currents of magic within him-currents that will either drown him or make him something more than he was. No library descriptions found.

questo libro è uguale agli altri due, non lento ma costante; e denso, di sensazioni, sentimenti e avvenimenti.
Denerys ha vinto la sua guerra con un drago in una puntata, "Veritas" (o per meglio dire I Sei Ducati) che ne aveva dozzine puo ben metterci 2 righe
non riponde ad alcune domande perche ci sono altre 2 trilogie su Fitz ad aspettarci.
Che chiedere di piu ad un libro che si conclude con una vera fine ma anche con la promessa di altri 6 volumi ??
