The first book of a trilogy (The Farseers), and introduction into a world that will not let Robin Hobb for 3 trilogies (including this one). Great art! A pearl! A stunning ring, a medieval world, with innovative fantastic side, watermark, just enough to not allourdir the universe, and make it absolutely must. Once you get immersed in it, you can not let go of the adventures of Fitz. Be careful, your nights will be even shorter !!!
