What is it about? Fantasy, 2nd of the Farseer Trilogy, it follows a royal bastard whom is sworn to protect heir to the throne Prince Verity and Verity's new bride, but his task is complicated by an invasion of vicious barbarians who turn helpless captives into zombie-like Forged Ones. The home front is no safer, with an ailing King and usurpers to the throne waiting in the wings. Romance, sibling rivalry, battlefield exploits, betrayal, political intrigue and telepathic magic insure that there's never a dull moment in the Kingdom of the Six Duchies. (most of this synopsis borrowed from Amazon)
Are you enjoying it? Yes I love my epic fantasies, and this is richly detailed and characterised.
Another one here that looooves the Tomorrow Series and Ellie chronicles And a die-hard Harry Potter, Twilight and Sookie Stackhouse fan
ooh Beatrix, that Black Dagger Brotherhood series sounds delicious!!
Ree*Ree - I love the whole Farseer Trilogy & the Tawny Man Trilogy & The Liveship Traders Triolgy!! Love Robin Hobb!! (Except Forrest Mage ****e & not impressed at all with the coninuation of the dragon saga - she should have left a good thing well and truly alone...)
These are some of my favourite books. Let me know when you've finished the lot & we'll talk PS they get better with 2nd & 3rd readings too
