Slow book with lots of repetition as seems to be the style of this author, not as repetitive as some of their earlier works. Enjoyable for listening to while crafting. Plot follows Fitz through character development as an adult.

If you look hard enough, the ice mountain travel part could be boring, but anyone who has made it this far into ROTE knows plot is not what you come here for. The emotion in this book, especially between Fitz and the Fool.... the PAIN

I looked it up and I am 2.1 million words deep into ROTE, which I started 2 years ago in 2021. Only Robin Hobb can keep me coming back that long.
