![]() That first series followed the story of FitzChivalry Farseer, the bastard son of the royal heir Prince Chivalry, and his progress from anonymous foundling to ward to royal assassin and poisoner, under the tutelage of the shadowy recluse known as Chade. This trilogy is the sequel to the Farseer Trilogy, which introduced readers to the complicated machinations of the Kingdom of the Six Duchies, and the backstabbing political intrigue of the royal Farseer dynasty and its court. If these books weren’t so addictive, the shame of holding them in public just wouldn’t be worth it. Village street with Tudor buildings and cobbled road? Check and check. Stern-looking men in puffy shirts on horseback? Check. ![]() ![]() Thankfully, the Tawny Man trilogy (of which Fool’s Errand is the first volume) isn’t as bad as some of the others I’ve had to lug around, but it’s bad enough. It seems it is my fate to forever humiliate myself on the bus by carrying around Robin Hobb’s paperback novels, festooned with embarrassingly cheesy cover art. ![]()
