Chapters 1-4:

Ehh…

I expected to see Althea and co. again.

But no. I get 1 interesting storyline, and 2 dull stories.

Chapters 33-36:

Is this a spoiler? Idc

Fool’s carved gift to Fitz filled, broke and then filled my heart again.

These past 8 chapters have both been so heavy, but in completely different ways.

Chapters 29-32:

After everything I (and other readers) have been through so far in this story, I don’t know how I am going to manage getting through these reunions and meetings. My heart can’t take this anymore.

Chapters 25-28:

💔💔💔, Part II.

Chapters 21-24:

Dragons. Thank goodness we were never alive to bear witness to them.

P.s. I had 2 of my questions answered from my last post. So I take back my criticism 😇

Chapters 17-20:

Who is this black man? Where is the Pale Woman? What is the dragon? Why are there never any answers?!!???

Chapters 13-16:

Do we… have a traitor among the camp? Exciting!!

Chapters 9-12:

Holy Shit! I was initially going to express my disappointment for this section of the book, because it was so repetitive and it felt like the author was just trying to fill in gaps.

BUT

One characters return has saved everything!!

Chapters 5-8:
Chaos is kindling, but idk when it will erupt. There’s way too many unknowns at the moment.

Chapters 1-4:
Damn this has hit hard. So much sentimentalism (is this a word?) and harsh honesty.

On a side note. More authors should write their books like this. This trilogy is more just a 2000 page novel. I mean this as the last book ended on a conversation, this book started with the MC walking out of the room where he had the conversation.

Cinema.

Chapters 21-24:
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Chade is pissing me off heavily.

He’s ruining it all. And I’m not a happy reader right now.

Chapters 17-20:
Wow. A lot has gone on.
Our dear, misfortunate MC is yet again at the wrong end of another battle, both physical and mental.

But I’m starting to worry his secret will come out soon…

Chapters 13-16:

So many relationships broken, old friends found again, and yet another new disaster for Fitz.

Will it ever stop?

Chapters 9-12:

The Duchies (current setting) meets Bingtown (last series setting) and it brings many revelations and more branching stories.

I get a crazy feeling that even by the very end, not every storyline will be closed…

Chapters 5-8:

Poor Fitz. It’s been 15 years and he is still struggling with deciding what HE wants in his life.

In other news, I’m warming up to Prince Dutiful. I still think there is something bound to go wrong there, but for now I am enjoying.

Part 4: The Unravelling

Hold onto your hats, we have breaking news.

MORE DYING.

Seriously? Sure, Jules’ storyline is actually interesting because she’s learning things, but outside of her it’s just rinse and repeat.

Really considering not continuing the series unless there’s something groundbreaking..

Chapters 1-4:

Following on the literally sentence after the last book 🥹🥹🥹
Thank goodness for no time skips.

And our dear MC is (as always) in a predicament. How are so many people testing him with their magic?????

Chapters 25-28:

I’m heartbroken. That’s all.

Chapters 21-24:

Poor Fitz. Both his new, loved life and his old, stressful life have merged together in a very uncomfortable way.

Also, Robin Hobb loves a little pest of a youth in her books. The Prince hasn’t failed to live up to the hype. He’s not quite as bad as Malta yet…

Chapters 17-20:

This book is deep. MMC being constantly forced to think about his morals and who and what he is, I feel for him. Especially since he just wanted to live with his wolf.

Screw royalty. Always causing issues no matter where you look.

Chapters 13-16:

Cats and more cats. And what’s with the Prince?

I’m also realising the book seems significantly shorter than what I have been churning through. However it’s not like Hobb has been tight on her information sharing.

Wonder what this looks like for the future of the series?

Chapters 9-12:

The new characters introduced so far (given it’s only 2) is such a Robin Hobb thing, and I love it.

They each bring their own mystery and enjoyment exactly where needed. I get big Amber vibes from Jinna.

Chapters 5-8:

There’s something about hearing the story of time missed, especially when narrated by Tom and Beloved.
So heartwarming. Perfect way for us to learn what happened.

Chapters 1-4:

There’s something comforting to return to a character you’ve spent so much time with before.

We have also returned to slow plot lines, not mad about it though.

Chapters 33-36:

This past 10 chapters have been insane. Possibly the craziest 200 pages in fantasy book history (obv my opinion)

Ohhh how I am glad I stumbled upon this glorious series.

Chapters 29-32:

HOLY SHIT

Chapters 25-28:

How did I forget the biggest asshole to come out of The Cursed Shores??????

The ship (Paragon) is an absolute mastermind Wowie!!!!!

Chapters 21-24:

Dragons dragons dragons. I only needed one, but now I get plenty.
Also, it’s been a while since I’ve expressed my distaste for Malta… she’s warming to me. I can’t believe it!

Chapters 17-20:

Dragons are such fascinating creatures, I’m so glad they aren’t actually real.

Also why are royalty usually portrayed as precious. Why can’t I have a badass Prince like the last series.

Chapters 13-16:

Omg and now the connections to the Farseer Trilogy finally appear!!!
And not how I expected 🤔🤔

Also Wintrow is down bad, poor boy.
