🐲 Malta’s situation with the Chalcedeans isn’t that great.

🐲 That city Tintaglia went to… is that the same one Fitz visited in Assassin’s Quest? I don’t pay much attention to descriptions of places but those wide streets made for dragons sound familiar to me, but I guess there could be more of those cities. 🐲 EXCUSE ME! DID VIVACIA JUST DIE? WE’VE BARELY STARTED THIS BOOK! But now the “dead” dragon has taken over? That shouldn’t matter much to Kennit, maybe it’s even an advantage for him since he no longer needs Wintrow and an angry dragon probably shares his sensibilities more than Vivacia did. She’s leading by example in a way Serilla never would have done. Then you have Ronica at their meeting hall, just starting to clean it up without anyone else there and that inspires the rest of the traders to do the same. Serilla planned to go among the people, who she expected to be in full swing repairing their homes, so she could praise them for it and earn some cheap points. I noticed an interesting contrast between her and Ronica in how they go about rebuilding the town. 🐲 I LOVE that whole political game that’s going on in Bingtown! Serilla isn’t just one to root for anymore because she’s too obsessed with power and thinks she knows more about Bingtown than the people who live there. 🐲 I mean the first two chapters were great and it’s not that I don’t want to know about Ronica and Malta, but did Hobb know how desperate I was for any word on Wintrow that she just straight-up named the third chapter after him? Thank you for that! Not that he’s doing super great, but thank you. 🐲 Ronica Vestrit is starting to grow on me. The rest of the post will include SPOILERS as they are the thoughts I had while reading the book. Reluctantly he added, “Perhaps they even need it.” “Perhaps people have a right to their pain,” he hazarded. You predict your own failure, and by inaction, lock yourself into it.” “When you fear to fail, you fear something that has not happened yet. Look at it, you dolt! It’s trying to tell you what is wrong so you can fix it.” “Do not pull back from the pain and imagine that makes you strong. Overall, I’m still left with a very positive experience after reading this trilogy. Which was also my complaint about Assassin’s Quest, unfortunately. My tiny but still relevant complaint is that I expected more from the ending. Character development truly is the reason to read Hobb, and I’m in awe of what she did here in Liveship Traders.

There was so much action from start to finish, and the characters saw their arcs come to an end.

I finished the Liveship Traders! So much pain has been endured, so many characters have stolen my heart, and Ship of Destiny finally gave me all the answers I’ve been craving.
