"As the ocean sorts pebbles from sand on a beach and stratifies them at the tide mark, so did the poundings and caressings of Galen separate his students."

Finally back to reading after a stint with finals. This book is getting good and I'm definitely warming up to Hobb's writing style. The first 100 pages has this sort of glaze over it, like it's a dream, which may be due to it being a story that is told, but the tone has set in nicely with that. I can't see myself enjoying that vibe for the whole book, though. Regardless, I'm optimistic of the quality moving forward.
