The first 150 pages of this was painful for me to read but by the end I read 230 pages in a day and was completely invested in the story. Hobb always pulls from relatable injustices and that's what makes her works even more heart wrenching to me than others. In this one themes of patriarchy, greed and corruption are very prevalent and even in this far off world on the sea the problems these characters face feel like something that could happen to you or someone you love. I am very excited to pick up the next book in the series and see how this story pans out.
