Another amazing Hobb book - at this point 9 books into this series I am used to the pain and loving it. It's back to the old Fitz depression grindstone. The breakup/fight part was especially painful, as someone who loves the relationship between the Fool and Fitz it was rough.
I loved how each of the relationships built on one another, how the pain was deeper and the motivations for all the characters realistic. I'm rating this 4.75 as it was excellent but maybe wasn't as well paced as Fool's Errand - some of the slower bits felt especially slow in this one. Still, I breezed through this book and I'm excited (scared) to read the next book.
