Description

“A full master of the epic fantasy.”
—Tulsa World

One of the world’s most acclaimed fantasists, New York Times bestselling author Robin Hobb returns to the world of her popular “Tawny Man” trilogy with Dragon Haven—the second book, following Dragon Keeper (“Imaginative, literate, and compassionate from first page to last” —Booklist) in an epic adventure about the resurgence of dragons in a world that both needs and fears them. Hobb, whose Soldier Son Trilogy (Shaman’s Crossing, Forest Mage, Renegade’s Magic) has won raves from critics, fans, and peers alike, returns to the Rain Wilds with Dragon Haven, and readers of Raymond Feist, Terry Brooks, and Lois McMaster Bujold will eagerly follow.

  • Slow

    By Damodred Hammerfist
    My biggest complaint is the lack of interest this book inspires. Read this if you desire to find the perfect example of "slow". Also, the actual story is somewhat less then exciting. But for all that it for the most part is well written. The tendency to over explain with redundancy takes a bit away from the writing quality, but all in all she knows how to write, she just doesn't know how to tell a story. If that makes any sense :)

  • Good read

    Great read, really enjoyed a book that didn't follow a norm of some evil tyrant to be vanquished. The character development was good, interactions seemed genuine and the predictability was low. Priced to high? Get over it people, it costs more for 1 ticket to go to the movies these days. Everyone takes their hits starting off, robin hobb will eventually demand the share her talent deserves if she isn't already.

  • Excelent book

    The series is phenomenal, one of her best! Robin Hobb is a master story teller. The price of the book should not affect the rating!

  • A little pricey.

    Considering that I read both this one and the preceding free volume in this series, I don't consider the price to be exorbitant. Great story, good character development, and a nice escapist summer read. Hope the series ends as well as the Soldier Son one did.

    This book was not worth the price.

  • Overpriced

    This is way overpriced. While I enjoyed the first in the series as a trial read on my iPad - I simply refuse to pay this high price for a ebook. Get real on the pricing.

    Great continuance to the Liveship-series. Can't wait on the next book.
