pick3½✨
I know this one isn't officially part of the #RealmOfElderlings read-a-long.
However, after discovering the Piebald Prince in Assassin's Quest and realizing there's a short story about him, I simply had to find out more.
As with everything I've read by Hobb this is a well tailored little tale of the first Witted Prince to take a short rule over the Six Duchies.

Dug out my musty copy so I‘m ready to go! How I wish I could‘ve afforded the fancy Folio editions from a few years back.
pickThe magic in this trilogy is god tier. The story is fast-paced & the multiple POVs are used skillfully to keep the pace quick and build the world. The political turmoil makes me wonder if the author is clairvoyant. Also, there are the coolest fucking dragons ever written. I could go on and on. Read this trilogy.

1. I decided to join the #realmoftheelderlings readalong hosted by @PuddleJumper
2. I went for a walk 2 days this week and made progress in my walking game called Walking Planet
3. I signed up for Tome since TikTok is getting banned
4 & 5 - I gave feedback to Taylor Bradshaw on what he should focus on next for his music this year and as a thank you gift to me, he sent me a voice memo of a new song in progress and song lyrics.

This trilogy is one of my most anticipated from my TBR but I keep procrastinating starting because this is the end and I don‘t want my time in The Realm of the Elderlings to end.

pickBook three in the Liveship Trader trilogy and this book pulls everything together wonderfully.
The world and plot are too big for me successfully put into words but just know, this is an epic journey with traders, pirates, slaves, royalty and many other sections of society tackling many issues that we face today. It gives you such a lot to think about.
pickBook two in Robin Hobb's Liveship Trilogy.
The plots in her books are bigger than I can ever contemplate however the writing, the magic system, the world building are so assessable and the characters are so relatable.
Paragon remains my favourite character however there isn't a character I'm not invested in. Hobb batters her characters and that batters my heart, I'm here to witness their suffering along with their jubilation.
There's drama, cunning and at the heart of all; of course there's Love.
I'll definitely recommend this to all my fellow #RealmOfElderlings reading buddies.
