Wow, Robin Hobb can end a chapter! She left me reeling more times than not. Compared to the previous two Farseer books, this one moves quick! Extremely emotional, especially at the beginning and end. There was an odd twist at the end that was uncomfortable but it fits with the culture of the Six Duchies. Loved how it came together in the end.
