    Can you all avoid posting any spoilers please? Still haven't gotten this yet :(

    Yes, don't post spoilers for the third book without appropriate spoiler space. Otherwise you'll make me very upset..

    It's like they didnt even read this. (Spoiler tags are visible and don't work on all phones so the text shows. But thanks for the ending. Guess I don't have to buy it now )

    Even if my spoiler tag showed on your phone, it gave away absolutely nothing
    Anyway, deleted now

    Really isn't the poster's problem if spoiler tags don't work on your phone.

    It was a good book, felt like a proper resolution to the trilogy and that particular story.

    Not gonna lie I'm an emotional wreck after finishing it. Didn't go where I expected at all but it's making more sense now that I think on it.

    Wishing I had re read the two books previous to assassins fate, I got the audiobooks to go through. They're actually brilliant. Takes a bit to get into the guys voice but it's worth it.

    Should have been called Greatest Hits of Robin Hobb featured Fitz and the Fool.
    Really touched on everything in her previous books, as about as satisfying an ended to a series as you will get.

    Are you talking about Assassins fate?
    If so it did do that and it didn't. Fool became really unlikeable but she wrote the progression of Fitz as an older mature man so well. Still not sure I loved the conclusion. But I did bawl my eyes out several times during this.

    Yes, I'm talking about Assassin's Fate.
    It's a much better conclusion than any other long running series, that I can think of.
    Wheel of Time ended horribly.

    Without being a conclusion truly though. I think we're gonna see another series about Bee. And the door is open a crack for
    the wolf of the west. I can't see them lying down and goin to sleep as Verity dragons did

    Yeah same.
    I'm re reading them and on royal assassin. Man he's a whingey pain in this book. And I get why he has to be but it makes for hard reading at times.
