Beskrivning
‘Fantasy as it ought to be written’ George R.R. MartinThe kingdom of the Six Duchies is on the brink of civil war when news breaks that the crown prince has fathered a bastard son and is shamed into abdication. The child’s name is Fitz, and he is despised.Raised in the castle stables, only the company of the king’s fool, the ragged children of the lower city, and his unusual affinity with animals provide Fitz with any comfort.To be useful to the crown, Fitz is trained as an assassin; and to use the traditional magic of the Farseer family. But his tutor, allied to another political faction, is determined to discredit, even kill him. Fitz must survive: for he may be destined to save the kingdom.

Mer om författaren

Robin Hobb is one of the world’s finest writers of epic fiction.She was born in California in 1952 but raised in Alaska, where she learned how to raise a wolf cub, to skin a moose and to survive in the wilderness. When she married a fisherman who fished herring and the Kodiak salmon-run for half the year, these skills would stand her in good stead. She raised her family, ran a smallholding, delivered post to her remote community, all at the same time as writing stories and novels. She succeeded on all fronts, raising four children and becoming an internationally best-selling writer. She lives in Tacoma, Washington State.

Recensioner i media

'Hobb is one of the great modern fantasy writers … what makes her novels as addictive as morphine is not just their imaginative brilliance but the way her characters are compromised and manipulated by politics.'The Times

Betyg & recensioner

  1. 5/5 M. S

    Det är ingen underdrift att säga att Hobb's böcker är världens bästa fantasy serie. Den toppas bl.a. game of thrones och Harry Potter som tidigare har varit stora favoriter hos mig.

  2. 5/5 Kmf

    Den här serien är med på alla listor över de bästa fantasyböckerna, och det av en god anledning. Robin Hobb har skapat något som är både klassiskt bekant, och nyskapande på en och samma gång.

  3. 5/5 Paula B

    Jag vet inte hur många gånger Robin Hobbs böcker gjort att jag suttit uppe och läst till klockan fem på morgonen, bara för att drabbas av en enorm saknad när boken är slut.
