Just finished Fool’s Assassin. I’m not sure how I missed it a decade ago; I love Robin Hobb.

I loved and hated it at the same time. It’s one of those books that feels like half the book is the intro. But…it’s Robin Hobb. I love her writing! And I’ve read 6 of her books starring one of the main characters (and another 6 set in the same world), so there’s a cozy sense of the familiar.

I also just finished Neal Asher’s The Soldier. Based on that, I’ve started reading Gridlinked (which, hindsight, I should have picked up Gridlinked first! But I grabbed The Soldier off the shelf at the library, so c’est la vie…(ou livre?)
