Robin Hobb, Inheritance: Too short!

Posted : 17 years, 11 months ago on 21 May 2006 02:23

Inheritance tells the story of Cherry, a young woman who comes across an ugly wooden pendant that used to belong to her deceased grandmother. She puts it on and as she's leaving the house of her brutal grandfather and greedy cousins for Bingtown, the small wizardwood face on the pendant starts talking to her. It tells her of her grandmother's youth as a respected Bingtown trader and of how she fell in love with Howarth, a poor young man who ended up stealing all her wealth and marrying a Jamaillian woman. The pendant will help Cherry avenge her grandmother's honour.

All I can say about this short story, is that it was... too short!
