Out of all of the realm of the elderlings books this is by far my favorite so far. The character dynamics were unparalleled and the pacing in this book felt the best as well. I finished this book easily in two days. It tore me up but just about as much as any other Robin Hobb book. Fitz was so good, and the dynamic between him and the Fool was so lovely. I wanted to highlight their every interaction. 

There was so many satisfying moments that could only be earned with such a long series like this. It's been building since Assassins Apprentice and was so good. Seeing Fitz in a more mentor like role was great to see, all his actions good and bad were something I really loved to read. 

I'm excited to continue the series though I know it's going to destroy me.
