4,5 The return of Fitz and Robin Hobb’s incredible saga. She now takes us fifteen years down in time after the events of the Farseer Trilogy. References to the Liveship Traders to exist but are scarce. In any case we have here an ageing Fitz living reclude with his wolf and who will be drawn back into adventures with the coming of age of Prince Dutiful. The Fool plays here a prominent role by faking being a Jamaillan noble while keeping serving the Farseer bloodline. As the starter to a new trilogy things can be a little slow to be put in motion and lacking grandiose and epicness that will most likely brought in by the following books, but Hobb has once again successfully mingled psychological novel and heroic fantasy styles, sparked with some romance. As well-written as any Hobb novel - but just about bored me to tears. Not a lot happening with our favorite characters. This seemed more like it was written to fulfill a publication contract crunch than to entertain fans of the Hobb universe. The saddest bit of all is that I'll have to finish it to ensure I'm not missing out on history that will be referred to repeatedly in upcoming trilogies. Praying the next two are a bit more exciting. I feel like Fitz getting back into the fray of Buck took way too much of the book. Also, even though she was incredibly insulting about it I kind of agree with Starling at the end. Fitz cannot catch a break and won't give himself a break and tends to wallow in self-pity but somehow Hobb writes this well and not obnoxiously. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Martin For fifteen years FitzChivalry Farseer has lived in self-imposed exile, assumed to be dead by almost all who once cared about him. But now, into his isolated life, visitors begin to arrive: Fitz??s mentor from his assassin days; a hedge-witch who foresees the return of a long-lost love; and the Fool, the former White Prophet, who beckons Fitz to fulfill his destiny. Then comes the summons he cannot ignore. Prince Dutiful, the young heir to the Farseer throne, has vanished. Fitz, possessed of magical skills both royal and profane, is the only one who can retrieve him in time for his betrothal ceremony, thus sparing the Six Duchies profound political embarrassment . . . or worse. But even Fitz does not suspect the web of treachery that awaits him??or how his loyalties will be tested to the breaking point. Praise for Robin Hobb and Fool??s Errand ??[Robin] Hobb has created a world brimming with detail and complexity [and] once again proves herself a full master of the epic fantasy.???Tulsa World ??Splendid . . .
