Yeah. So, nope. I can safely say that had this been my first Hobb book, it would have also been my last.

Dragon Keeper by Robin Hobb is the start of her fourth series set in The Realm of the Elderlings.

While the story was interesting, I felt the book suffered from a slow start and an abrupt ending. In fact the ending felt so abrupt for a moment I thought I was actually missing some pages.

Yay! The Rain Wilds are back!This book takes up the story following the Liveship Traders trilogy.I have to say, the introduction to the story was done masterfully. You know how some authors start a series, and the first chapter or so is an awkward reiteration of "what already happened?" Well, this d...
