I have to admit I found an aspect I wasn't ready for. There is mention of rape -not overly graphic but it does go into a dive-in page scene not only as a reference to a past event. There were mentions in the previous books in the series but this felt worse as we spend more time with the consequences and the added injury where the victim is not believed. But it also goes through a very good example of moving and handling trauma. It feels like it was handled well.
*Spoilers ahead*
There are several characters that become dearer and yet some fall from grace. I have a strong reaction to the self-proclaimed king of pirates his past does not excuse the actions taken and the "good" he did was always done for selfish reasons. I am glad about the ending he had.
The Dragons are very selfish and self-centered with a huge ego, but then again so are humans.
I am eager to go on to the next installment in the Enderling series.

Rape victim blaming is mentioned and disbelief by the vast majority of the people.divine529's review against another edition

This is the third and final book in the Liveship Traders trilogy and the sixth book in the overall RotE series and we continue to follow several characters, mostly from the same family (the Vestrits) with a few exceptions. This takes place in another part of the world - primarily Bingtown and we also get an added Rain Wild portion. As with the other books, it's full of feminism, pirates, dysfunctional families, political intrigue of a different kind than we had with Fitz and complex relationships of all kinds.
Every element I normally do in my breakdowns (writing, plot, characters and world building) is just phenomenal. Hobb's characters and world building in particular are some of the best I've read. It's not a simple act of reading these books, you live them.
