About this ebook

'Fantasy as it ought to be written' George R.R. Martin

The final instalment of Robin Hobb’s Sunday Times best-selling series The Rain Wild Chronicles.

Dragons will fly over Kelsingra once more...

Attacked by hunters, Tintaglia is dying of her wounds. If she perishes, her ancestral memories will die with her and the dragons in the ancient city of Kelsingra will lose the secret knowledge they need to survive.

The dragon keepers immerse themselves in the dangerously addictive memory-stone records of the city in the hope of recovering the lost Elderling magic that once allowed humans and dragons to co-exist.

But war is coming: war between dragons and those who would destroy them...

I thoroughly enjoyed the book and the entire series of books, I Asa's hooked from the very start. I thought it was well written and I was so happy to read the demise of Hest. However, the reason I have it a 4 is purely down to the end of the book which I felt came to an ends too abruptly, one minute they were attacking Chalsed the next Selden had written a missive home to his family; I think more could have been made of the ending.

The first Hobb book that I don't rate with 5 stars! I love her style, I love her characters, I love the great world she has created, but the end of the Rain Wild Chronicles was s flop. And they lived happily ever after?

I love robin Hobbs style, she really makes her characters work well together and puts them through there paces. I did struggle to understand if this was the last installment (which apparently it is) as there seems to be some unfinished aspects to their stories..I can read her stories over and over and can't wait 8 months for the fitz\fool book she's working on :-)

About the author

Robin Hobb is one of the world’s finest writers of epic fiction.She was born in California in 1952 but raised in Alaska, where she learned how to raise a wolf cub, to skin a moose and to survive in the wilderness. When she married a fisherman who fished herring and the Kodiak salmon-run for half the year, these skills would stand her in good stead. She raised her family, ran a smallholding, delivered post to her remote community, all at the same time as writing stories and novels. She succeeded on all fronts, raising four children and becoming an internationally best-selling writer. She lives in Tacoma, Washington State.
