"Ship of Destiny" by Robin Hobb

The most important thing to say about this series is how well written it was. It continually flowed well, always keeping me interested. There weren’t any points that dragged. Very character driven. As a matter of fact, I have been reading about these characters for so long it is going to be hard to move onto others.

So much happened to these characters. They matured, or went through live changing events. Some fought to obtain their goals, with no ends, and didn’t care who they had to step over to get there. Some later came to conclusions that goals they set were not what was really best for them. Or that their goals were not best for all the others involved. The “heroes” had faults and problems that you wanted to smack them for. And the “villains” had softer sides that made you want to care about them. There too was the secrets behind some of the people and the liveships themselves. It all made for great reading.

There is so much packed into these books. And again, they really keep you interested. It was also nice to see that not everything at the end was predictable. Some of it was quite the opposite as a matter of fact. Still the most amazing thing to me, is that I never thought I could read just over 2400 pages of a story and not get bored with it.
