Ship of Magic by Robin Hobb

adventurous medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I had heard about this book on several YouTube channels and have waded my way through it over the past three weeks. I'm going to hold off on continuing this series in the immediate future (or at least until the book chat in mid-March).  While it was not a bad book, it was a struggle to stay engaged with the story.  I have not read any of the other books in this world, so I feel like the worldbuilding itself staggers from piece to piece with very little to hold it together.  It get an intrigued meh from me.
