As a whole, this trilogy is about trauma and the cycles of abuse. Every character experiences trauma and deals with it in their own way, learning to find their individuality in spite of what they have endured. They’re pretty bleak and deal really nonchalantly with death, rape, and torture. It shocked me in the first book and it shocked me in the third. Hobb has a real mastery of including real-life horrors with the casualness of the brutality of real life. It’s hard to read, and some endings were shockingly bittersweet. But these books are worth reading (as much as I love Fitz, I love all these characters almost as much and am so glad I took the time to read their stories). I can’t wait for the next ones.

I wish there was more to say on this, and I'm sure there probably is, but honestly, I'm just really glad I discovered Robin Hobb this year.
