The Tawny Man Trilogy

This outstanding trilogy ties up some of Robin Hobb's earlier story threads so characters from earlier books, nothing to do with the main characters the Fool and Fitz start appearing in "The Golden Fool" I am thoroughly impressed with Robin Hobb's literary skills. This trilogy is enthralling! I would recommend it to anyone. My only regret is that there are no more of her books available on Audible. I have listened to them all! But "The Tawny Man" is the best of them all!

Narrators

I wish that the different narrators in this series of books could be more consistent in saying names.

Sadly this felt like filler

I was hoping for a quest type adventure but so little actually happens that this felt like filler to make it up to a trilogy. I am a completist so will read the next one but wanted more from this one.
Also, technically there seemed a lack of attention from the producer - there were too many instances of repeated lines that weren't edited out and quite a few mispronunciations that weren't picked up. Some of the edits were a little clunky too.

Repeats itself.

This book is great apart for the narration repeats itself a lot in many chapters.

narrator brings it all to life

Narrator is brilliant.
I think this is the only Robin Hobb where I would give the narrator more stars than the story!
(story is still good, just not as eventful as many of the others in the series - although of course it provides vital stepping stones in the trilogy arc)

another excellent sequel

these stories are so engrossing be it this trilogy or the assassin series. my only criticism is that the characters seem to change, in early readings kettriken was more scandanavian like,whereas this stoeynwas cross French and Spanish, prefer the former, consistency across the books would have been better in both narrator and character portrayal, just my opinion

very subversive

very subversive. You have to keep on listening. Robin Hobb has to be one of my favourite authors

Loved it!

Once again Hobb does not fail to deliver another fantastic addition to the series. The narrator Nick Taylor certainly makes it come alive.

This whole series will be the death of me

I love. So good. Intense a f. Goodness bless this is so good. Can't wait to listen to the next one.

Great, but...

another fantastic fantasy from Robin Hobb, this audiobook is fantastically voiced, and the only drawback at all is that this is the middle book of a trilogy, and as such the story is rather unfinished... but that just makes me want the next book even more!
