Oh we are BACK! I wasn't crazy about the end of the Farseer Trilogy and enjoyed The Liveship Traders enough (through no fault of their own I wasn't super into them) but being back with my boy Fitz was all I needed. Robin Hobb's character work continues and I resonated so strongly with the Fool's comment about still wanting to protect the child he was because my heart broke every other chapter. The way Chade reacts to seeing him (and the way Dutiful thoughtlessly mentions how Chade refers to Fitz with so much affection that he assumed Fitz was his son??? "My first boy" ðŸ˜). Fitz has always been so loved and it was just as hard to read it now as it was in the first trilogy because he doesn't get it! We are not talking about Nighteyes because I can't yet, but that death scene was one of the most beautiful ways I could imagine saying goodbye to a character- feeling all of life at once as they go.
Finally: "I recognized and pushed away a truth I did not want to know". Fitz I will beat you myself
