#fools quest

About:

Fool’s Quest was written by Robin Hobb and published in 2015. It is the second book in the Fitz and the Fool trilogy, which is the last sub series in The Realm of the Elderlings series. This book pretty much leaves off where the last one did, so I can’t say too much. Fitz needs to go off on a journey and the Fool follows him as well as a couple other characters. For most of the book Fitz is at Buckkeep and then closer to the end he takes off on his journey. We also get a few sections from his daughter Bee’s perspective.

Did I Like It?:

As with pretty much the whole series I did indeed love this one! I’m really liking this conclusion to The Realm of the Elderlings. A lot of my favorite characters were in a lot of this book. Most notably we get a lot of the Fool, but then also Chade and Kettriken. As well as some new characters that I’m really liking. I suppose some would say Robin Hobb’s books can be slow,  but they’re so engrossing. This book really built up the pressure until Fitz and the Fool take off on their journey . At the end they end up in Kelsingra, which brings together characters from The Liveship TradersandThe Rain Wild Chronicles. All of the series seemed to come to a meeting point I felt like they hadn’t quite done in the other books, so that was exciting! I can’t wait to read the last book!

Do I Recommend This?:

If you’ve read this far in The Realm of the Elderlings series, yes keep going it’s amazing! If you haven’t read this series I highly recommend it for those that want a fantasy series with fabulous characters that you can’t stop reading about.
