Holy crap was this a long one. While I didnt enjoy the first two overmuch, this book I did, especially towards the end of the first quarter. Im glad I didnt give up reading the series as the conclusion was what I was hoping for! I am intrigued by the idea of continuing the other series, but wary about their length. It's a bit overwhelming to consider how many books there are to work through, though they seem readily available as audiobooks (or these were through my library at least) 
The simplest way for me to review this is to say I do not particularly enjoy Robin Hobb's writing, but I do like her mind for stories. Typically her style is just too drawn out for me and slow paced. If not for that, I think I would enjoy this series as a whole much much more.
