À propos de cet audio
Nearly 20 years ago, Robin Hobb burst upon the fantasy scene with the first of her acclaimed Farseer novels, Assassin’s Apprentice, which introduced the characters of FitzChivalry Farseer and his uncanny friend the Fool. A watershed moment in modern fantasy, this novel - and those that followed - broke exciting new ground in a beloved genre. Together with George R. R. Martin, Robin Hobb helped pave the way for such talented new voices as Scott Lynch, Brandon Sanderson, and Naomi Novik.
Over the years, Hobb’s imagination has soared throughout the mythic lands of the Six Duchies in such best-selling series as the Liveship Traders Trilogy and the Rain Wilds Chronicles. But no matter how far she roamed, her heart always remained with Fitz. And now, at last, she has come home, with an astonishing new novel that opens a dark and gripping chapter in the Farseer saga.
FitzChivalry - royal bastard and former king’s assassin - has left his life of intrigue behind. As far as the rest of the world knows, FitzChivalry Farseer is dead and buried. Masquerading as Tom Badgerlock, Fitz is now married to his childhood sweetheart, Molly, and leading the quiet life of a country squire.
Though Fitz is haunted by the disappearance of the Fool, who did so much to shape Fitz into the man he has become, such private hurts are put aside in the business of daily life, at least until the appearance of menacing, pale-skinned strangers casts a sinister shadow over Fitz’s past...and his future.
Now, to protect his new life, the former assassin must once again take up his old one....

For years, the Trader cities valiantly battled their enemies, the Chalcedeans. But they could not have staved off invasion without the powerful dragon, Tintaglia. In return, the Traders promised to help her serpents migrate up the Rain Wild River after a long exile at sea - to find a safe haven and, Tintaglia hopes, to restore her species. But too much time has passed, and the newly hatched dragons are damaged and weak, and many die.

Great Robin Hobb ill-served by Elliot Hill, the worst narrator ever. Best to just read them.

A Darker turn for one of my fav series
I have followed Fits Chivalry Farseer right from book One of his adventures and this segment of his journey definitely takes a darker turn then the other books. As always Robin's writing and story is captivating, engaging and very well written, However the narrative on this trilogy is my least favourite with the use of weird loud whispering as the voice of some of the characters, but this does not entirely impede the listeners ability to follow the story.

My favorite by far
Of the whole series, to me, this book is the best so far, and by an important margin. The characters are interesting and believable, the rythm of the story makes it hard to put the book down, the storyline is original and surprising. So much action! And I also really liked the narrater.

Great continuation of FarSeer storyline
Good story
Love the FarSeer tale
Absolutely Horrible narrator, should really have listened to previous novels to get names of places/characters correct and match “voices”

please choose better narrators
The story is so hard to find interesting when half the voices are whispered or breathy and even on full volume you can barely hear them. Alot slower paced than the rest of the books from realm of the elderlings but still a great addition to the world and worth the listen.

Addictive story with unique protagonist
Through the first six FitzChivalry Farseer books, I struggled to characterize what exactly bothered me about Fitz. Why does he make so many poor decisions? Why does he seem inept at deductive reasoning and utterly bereft of inductive reasoning? Why does he ignore the information and opinions of his most trusted companions?
Is he arrogant? Self-centered? Self-indulgent? Emotionally stunted? Distracted and simply not noticing? The latter can be ruled out, because he remembers such detail years later to recount them for us. The others, while true, don't explain it either, as in his recounting he gives little hint of either shame or chagrine, as if he realized what he was telling us.
He's stupid. He's the least intelligent protagonist in any major fantasy series. Robin Hobb has expertly written a dolt - a less generous analysis might blame clumsy or even poor writing, overshooting the mark with unlikely obtuseness as a plot device to create and drive conflict, but I don't think that's it.
FitzChivalry Farseer is actually a moron, and it doesn't really detract from the story. I'm on his 7th book and I'm steaming ahead to the end.. I just had to accept that his mother's father dropped him on the head long ago, on his way to leave him at the outpost.

The narrator Change is Striking.
the narrator struggles to keep up with James Langton. I have a hard time immersing into the story while an English noble from the 1700s reads a book intensely. with little expression.
