pickI didn‘t love Royal Assassin quite as much as I enjoyed Assassin‘s Apprentice. I think it suffered from a little bit of second book syndrome. And Fitz got on my nerves. But I still enjoyed the atmosphere and setting. Fitz is still young here so there‘s room for development. I‘m still going to continue the series but I‘m going to take a break to start book three with a fresh perspective.

pickWell, that was quite a ride! Robin Hobb is an incredible storyteller (as a rarely-reads fantasy, big books or series reader, I‘ve finished the trilogy in 9 months, which is quite bizarre!). She‘s just kept pulling me back in. And (eventually) we even got dragons.
Time for a few months away, but I‘ll definitely be back to this world and (presumably.some of) these characters.
“You are confusing plumbing and love. Again. “
Yes, I‘m still going with Fitz & (thankfully) The Fool. Robin Hobb is a master storyteller. I‘d decided I was DEFINITELY giving up after this book. Buuut… I‘ll probably need to carry on after a (long) break. She‘s kind of genius.
9 hours left, and 7 days before Libby eats the audiobook. I REALLY don‘t want to be left with waiting for 3 weeks for the final 90 minutes! (Ramps up speed to x2.5 😬)

On one hand, it‘s still keeping my interest.
On the other hand, I keep deciding I‘ve had enough of the series now.
And yet I‘m still going.
**FOR ANOTHER 25 HOURS ⏰**
I‘ve thoroughly dissected my issues with epic fantasy (notably its epicness 🙄. Also, for a book called Assassin‘s Quest, there‘s way too much assassining. And questing).
But my main issue right now, is WHERE ARE THE DRAGONS???
I‘m really not a very good fantasy reader. Sorry!
