you would rather go naked into the storm.”Īs soon as I started this book I was happy to get back to Hobbs writing. “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. It definitely isn't action packed, but emotionally it is so hard hitting. It is the best first 150 pages I have ever read in a fantasy series. Some people have also said that this book has a rough start, and I literally could not disagree more. Fortunately I think books where everyone was a logic bot would be pretty boring. If you find books where people make foolish decisions that you would never make frustrating and bad then this is not the book for you. The next thing is that characters in this book will make some decisions that are just oh so human, and by that I mean dumb. There are maybe 2 or 3 action scenes in the entire book, and the first one is more then halfway through. Be warned if you want a fantasy book with action, this is not the book for you. None of these things are cons, more just the style of book it is. To start I am going to preface this with things that may cause you to not enjoy this book as much as me. Ship of Magic takes everything I loved about The Farseer trilogy, and ramps it up to 11, somehow Hobbs writing shines even brighter in this expanded setting and PoV.
