Hoping to prevent a bloody war, Will departs in search of the mythical hidden gate to the elven homeland and believes the country is safe in his absence. He is wrong. Adept at manipulation, the elves seek to conquer from within, and their spies have already infiltrated the kingdom. As Selene prepares to defend her throne, she discovers that the elven plot runs deeper than the blackest shadows. Duty demands she put her nation first, but a loathsome ally urges a darker choice.

Too much fight narrative for me.
Revisado: 03-20-25
I enjoyed the parts that were character focused. Would have liked less fighting narrative and more character development and narrative.

As the ancient tradition of Bingtown's Old Traders slowly erodes under the cold new order of a corrupt ruler, the Vestrits anxiously await the return of their liveship - a rare magic ship carved from sentient wizardwood, which bonds the ships mystically with those who sail them. And Althea Vestrit waits even more avidly, living only to reclaim the ship as her lost inheritance and captain her on the high seas. But the Vivacia has been seized by the ruthless pirate captain Kennit, who holds Althea's nephew and his father hostage.

Not for me.

I could not get interested. Finally just quit listening and returned. Maybe this should not have been the first one I listened to in the series! I followed suggested order on Wikipedia.

When a high-ranking officer gallops into the quiet Mistyvales, he brings a warning that shakes the countryfolk to their roots. But for Aedan, a scruffy young adventurer with veins full of fire and a head full of ideas, this officer is not what he seems. The events that follow propel Aedan on a journey that only the foolhardy or desperate would risk, leading him to the gates of the nation's royal academy - a whole world of secrets in itself. But this is only the beginning of his discoveries.

When Caldan’s parents are brutally slain, he is raised by monks and taught the arcane mysteries of sorcery. Vowing to discover for himself who his parents really were, and what led to their violent end, he is thrust into the unfamiliar chaos of city life. With nothing to his name but a pair of mysterious heirlooms and a handful of coins, he must prove his talent to earn an apprenticeship with a guild of sorcerers. But he soon learns the world outside the monastery is a darker place than he ever imagined, and his treasured sorcery has disturbing depths. As a shadowed evil manipulates the unwary and forbidden powers are unleashed, Caldan is plunged into an age-old conflict that brings the world to the edge of destruction.

The harrowing adventures of FitzChivalry Farseer and his enigmatic friend, the Fool, continue in Robin Hobb's triumphant follow-up to Fool's Assassin. But Fool's Quest is more than just a sequel. With the artistry and imagination her fans have come to expect, Hobb builds masterfully on all that has gone before, revealing devastating secrets and shocking conspiracies that cast a dark shadow over the history of Fitz and his world - a shadow that now stretches to darken all future hope.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!
Revisado: 01-27-16
If you could sum up Fool's Quest in three words, what would they be?
Interesting, unpredictable, addictive.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Fool's Quest?
When Fitz' true identity was made known to the court. When Bee was finally born. When Fitz and the Fool return to Kelsingra. The anticipation that Bee will be found.
What about Elliot Hill’s performance did you like?
He is easily understood and makes it easy to identify characters.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Fantasy at it's very best!
Any additional comments?
I love the way Robin Hobb develops such interesting characters. Her characters would be interesting even without the fantasy, which I find to be the most interesting of any fantasy author that I have read. I love all of her books and just wish there were more! I'm waiting impatiently for her next one to come out. All other authors pale in comparison. She is definitely my favorite author!
