This is one of my ALL time favorite Trilogies! It's a fun book with twists and turns, and tons of realistic characters....Hobb does a great job with them...some you love, and others you wanna slap....^_^
I loved it. It has adventure, coming of age legacies, a tad romance, mystery, magic and pirates...loved it and highly recommend.

This was the fist book I read by Hobb. Stylistically, she reminded me of Melanie Rawn, but a bit more modern and original. A great mix of nautical/piratical tales with epic fantasy.

Book 1 of a three book series. Do not start this book unless you plan the read the entire 3 book series, Interesting female lead character, who grows and develops thru the arc of the three books. Sexy at times without blatant porn descriptions of romantic events. If you like fantasy, and period stories set in a trading coastal sailing setting then you'll enjoy this empire building/destroying piratical romp. Mysteries abound and you might have to wait to the next book to figure out exactly what is going on, so if you like long trilogies these books might be up your ally.
