@kevie @theplentynet I'm a little surprised that none of this has been licensed to be made into a TV series or movie... but also, I'm quite happy it's not, because the books are super.

Been (slowly!) working my way through the Farseer Trilogy of books and really love diving in to the world that Robin Hobb (Megan Lindholm) created. 🐺 ⚔️
⚠️ No spoilers, please! I'm not done reading yet. 📚️
BUT, on seeking out a wiki to read up a little more on the Realm of the Elderlings, was pleased to see that @theplentynet have a Mastodon account too. 💪

I’ve decided I’m giving up on listening to Robin Hobb’s Farseer Trilogy for now. The narrator’s fantastic, but I think it’s just not for me at the moment. As much as I deeply love a handful of characters, I’m honestly not sure it’s interest as much as it's just trauma-bonding. Most of the other characters are opaque and enigmatic to me, personally. As someone said in a reply to a previous post of mine, it’s taking a lot of emotional labor to keep going.
I have a long list of books I want to listen to, so I think I’ll put this one on the back burner for now.

I'm 2/3 of the way through Robin Hobb’s Assassin’s Apprentice, and I’m starting to get a bit depressed. I know it’s 30 year old, and we recognize abuse and trauma differently now. But it’s… a lot.
I’m trying to use this book as an escape from the horrors of the real world, and I’m very concerned at this point that it’s not gonna work for me… There’s so little justice in it, just overwhelming misfortune in the life of a young child as he grows up, completely at the mercy of things outside of his control. It’s bleak.
Please, someone who has read it—please tell me there’s some redemption in the end. Because at this point I can’t wait to finish nine books in the series to get there. Hobb does an excellent job of depicting tiny hope and that’s what’s so crushing. She’s an excellent storyteller that is twisting my heart. I’m not sure I can put myself through this…

Finished the first book of the Farseer Trilogy. Absolutely brilliant. Definitely a fantasy series I’ll be eager to finish. 😊

ASSASSIN'S APPRENTICE (1995)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 28" X 20"Painted almost 3 decades ago, the cover for the first book of the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb remains a personal favorite. 1/3

Finished #reading my eighth novel this year and I’m eager to start the next one.
I’m really eager to return to Robin Hobb’s universe with the Farseer trilogy. This time I’m reading the illustrated version with illustrations by Magali Villeneuve.

CW: Minor Farseer Trilogy Spoilers
@bookstodon Fitz also just suffers so much in this book and seems to only grow more bitter because of it rather than growing as a character. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially since there are more Fitz books coming, but it was still hard to read. #FarseerTrilogy

CW: Minor Farseer Trilogy Spoilers
@bookstodon Assassin's Quest on the other hand was really excellently written, but still seemed like a step down from the first two books in the trilogy. The actual writing might be the best of the three, but the book's paced very slowly until the end where all the dangling plot threads are hastily tied up in a chapter or two. Still excellent, but felt like a bit of lost potential. #FarseerTrilogy

I've been reading more than usual recently and finished the third book of two different trilogies. The #Scholomance series by Naomi Novick and the #FarseerTrilogy by Robin Hobb. Both were very enjoyable on the whole, but didn't quite stick the landing. @bookstodon

Looking for a #bookreccomendation if anyone has one. I just finished the #FarseerTrilogy in #audiobook format. Before I dive into the next trilogy in that series I thought someone non-fantasy would be fun.
I'm told you get more reach using hashtags, so let me say I loved #TheExpanse, #PatrickRothfus, #NKJemisin, #JohnScalzi, #JoeZieja, #JoeHill, #StephenKing and other fantasy and sci-fi authors.
But I'd also love some contemporary fiction, if anyone has any. #ArthurNersesian is a favorite!
