I'm only halfway through Royal Assassin, but it's great so far. I'm usually not into fantasy at all, but my friend agreed to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender if I'd read the series. I'm glad I agreed.

Good to see your enjoying it. Its Great series. Especially for anyone with SA considering how Fitz is such a social outcast and a loner.

You know, I hadn't thought of it that way but you're right. I am so envious of his relationships with his bond animals. It sounds great to have a pack.

Do you ever find out anything concrete about the Fool? I'm baffled by him so far.

I felt the same envy when I was reading the book.

You find a little more about the fool as the series goes on but by the the end of it, your still mostly in the dark about him. There's another trilogy Robin Hobb did called The Tawny Man that continues Fitzs story 15 years after the end of the first trilogy that one gives you a lot more insight into the fool.

Another quote

"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing."
Agatha Christie

I always wanted a happy ending... Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.

"All who so ever who are happy in the world
Are so through the wish for the happiness of others

Of all who so ever who are miserable in the world
Are so through the wish for the happiness of themselves"


i got this one from a you tube page and have no idea wrote it (it sounds really buddha like) but i think there is some truth to it.
