I am in such a dither about what to write for a review. I love Fantasy. I love love LOVE originality. I love beautiful descriptions.I did not, however, love this book, even though it had all three of those things. I would just like to say, before I go further, that I didn't mark down this book b...
Dragon Keeper is Robin Hobb's eleventh book set in the Realms of the Elderlings, and the first in a new story arc set immediately after the events in her Liveship Traders trilogy, but focusing on new characters.After hundreds of years, the last serpents have finally made their migration up the rainw...
