L'Arche des Ombres - L'Intégrale 3 (Tomes 7 à 9) - L'incomparable saga des Aventuriers de la mer: Le Seigneur des Trois Règnes - Ombres et Flammes - Les Marches du trône

by Robin Hobb, Véronique David-Marescot (Translator)

À Terrilville, la situation ne cesse d'empirer : le blocus du port a anéanti le commerce tandis que la guerre civile, les incendies et les pillages ont réduit à néant l'unité de la cité. Plus loin dans les terres, dans le Désert des Pluies, un tremblement de terre a détruit la cité des Anciens. En mer, les combats font rage entre vaisseaux pirates et jamailliens. Séparé des siens, chaque membre de la famille Vestri - Malta, Althéa, Ronica -, aux prises avec des destinées contrariées, lutte de toute son énergie pour tenter de survivre. Quant au redoutable Kennit, il se croît désormais le maître du monde et se laisse aller à l'imprudence…

About the author

** I am shocked to find that some people think a 2 star 'I liked it' rating is a bad rating. What? I liked it. I LIKED it! That means I read the whole thing, to the last page, in spite of my life raining comets on me. It's a good book that survives the reading process with me. If a book is so-so, it ends up under the bed somewhere, or maybe under a stinky judo bag in the back of the van. 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. A 3 star means that I've ignored friends to finish it and my sink is full of dirty dishes. A 4 star means I'm probably in trouble with my editor for missing a deadline because I was reading this book. But I want you to know . . . I don't finish books I don't like. There's too many good ones out there waiting to be found.

Voilà un moment que je devais finir ce cycle. J’avais un peu traîné des pattes à cause de la longueur du livre. Mais c’était chouette de replonger dans cette univers. J’ai quand même réussi à me rappeler des intrigues principales.
J’ai bien aimé cette fin.
