The 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.
JamieArc Which is the first? I‘ve wanted to read a Robin Hobb book for a while but was intimidated, not knowing where to start. 5d
Rachel.Rencher @JamieArc I started with Ship of Magic which is book 1 in the Liveship Trader trilogy, but I found out later it was book 4 in the Realm of the Elderlings universe. The trilogy I read is a standalone in the same universe, so I didn't miss out on anything by starting here. If you want to start at the VERY beginning though, go with Assassin's Apprentice which is book 1 of the Farseer trilogy. 🥰 4d
PuddleJumper @JamieArc I'm running a readalong/book club where we read all of the books. We're starting with Assassin's Apprentice in February though you can jump in whenever. Everything is under the #RealofElderlings tag 4d
