Ship Of Destiny by Robin Hobb, 581
pages
“Hobb brings the epic tale of the Liveship Traders--begun in
Ship of Magic and Mad Ship--to its triumphant conclusion. It is a world in dire
straits: Bingtown is in flames, victim of the growing war with Chalced. Althea
and Brashen, aboard the Paragon, are finding their blinded Liveship
increasingly unstable and unpredictable. And in the midst of the chaos arises a
dragon powerful enough to forge the world as she sees fit, be it for
destruction, or redemption.” I liked this ending. Everything came together, maybe a little too
neatly, but that’s not uncommon in any stories, especially epic fantasy. Overall it was very good, with a few
surprises, which made it a good story.
Hobb is a great storyteller and I would recommend her books to anyone
who likes fantasy.
