Review title: Turn back now
Product review: Book 1 of Farseer was full, complete, and plot driven. With each book beyond (and I've read all the Fitz books through the second series) there's more feminized men, irritating plot twists, pages beyond count of sopratic whining, and anticlimactic endings than anyone need bother with. The world is creative and the characters have some complexity but Fitz and his snivelling for pages and pages about old pieces of story are murderous. I found myself skimming frequently and honestly if I hadn't bought so many at once I'd have stopped at this book midway through. Hobb has talent but needs editing and some direction to keep her plot moving. Personally I hate protagonists that are stupid and/or whiners and Fitz becomes both. Enjoy the warm fuzzy from her first book and imagine it stands alone. Nothing more to see here... move along.
