robin hobb, also writes as meagan lindhold
author of
the tawny man triology
the farseer triology
the liveship triology
I've read 8 out of the 9 books in the 3 series mentioned above, and this is one of the best fantasy authors i have ever found!
all 3 series take place on the same world, around the same time, using the same character ((except for the liveship, that only shares one character with the others))
the story is 'refreshingly' origional, the characters are strong, and not too much flowery detail to interupt the fast movng action...
just not enough hours in a day when reading these... everytime you put the book down your counting the seconds untill you can pick it back up....
