Title: Not a bad ending, but should have been longer.
Product review: Robin Hobb has a tendancy to write incredible fatasy series, only to cut the ending short. The conclusion to the farseer trilogy, has the same brilliant prose and captivating magic that makes this a first class series. I disagree with the idea that these kind of fantasy series should be trimmed down. It is the depth of the description of the smaller detials of a story that makes the story come to life. Hobb spends a lot of time bringing the characters to their final destination, but then hurries the ending in a manner that somewhat unsafisfactory. The conculsion was not bad, she had the respect for her story to aviod the unseemly good ending that kills some lesser authors.Overall this is a first class fatasy series that places Hobb as one of the premiere authors in this genre. She writes stories of a managable leangth, which allows her to try new ideas and new kinds of characters in ways that many authors cannot get away with in their 6,000 page epics.
