I will keep this brief (and perhaps come back and expand later, once I get my thoughts together) and say that this was brilliant. I put off reading for so long because I was disappointed that I wouldn't be following Fitz.

Foolish, foolish Sarah.

An absolute favourite.

This was great… 👍 every character is on a path towards something probably bad and I can’t wait to see where it all goes

I knew from the Farseer books that Robin Hobb had incredible characters, but in Ship of Magic she also gives you an exciting and enthralling plot.

This is one of the best books I’ve ever read. Every character and every POV is great. She delivers some great action and tense moments, and she even made me love a naval story when I don’t think I ever have liked one before. Can’t wait to read the rest!

Solo hay dos cosas que no me han terminado de convencer en esta novela.
1. Vivacia, la nave viva, es solo el octavo-noveno personaje en importancia.
2. Los personajes principales y las tramas no se entremezclan en absoluto hasta el final (y solo dos de ellas).

Sin embargo, todas estas cosas son errores menores que además se pueden subsanar en las siguientes entregas de la saga (parece que lo harán). Este libro es genial, está muy bien escrito, y tiene un trabajo de personajes genial y cuidadísimo. 100% recomendado si te gustan los barcos, la idea de objetos vivos, los piratas, y piensas que las mujeres suelen estar dejadas de lado en este tipo de historias.

Robin Hobb's books take me a little while to read because compared to the par.rom. I read Hobb's fantasies just pull me in and I read slower due to the world building, the characters, the story, the emotions, the everything! Her books are immersive and addicting! I can't wait to finish this series, so I can go on the her next trilogy, but I also don't want it to end!
