Yay! Robin Hobb is coming out with a new book! On Feb 8.
If you haven't read her books and don't hate the fantasy genre, I'd highly recommend them. Barry says the Assassin's Apprentice books were too depressing, but I don't think so. There are 3 trilogies that make up that story, and then another trilogy about people relocating dragons.
She also has a terrible trilogy called Soldier Son or Second Son. Those books are horrible, boring, depressing, and confusing. Like, I'm not confused because I'm dumb, the plots are just so weird that they make no sense.
But I'd read the Assassin's Apprentice one first, along with the other 2 trilogies that go with it. The second one is about a lady sailor and talking ships. Much more fun even than that sounds.
So, really you should read her books. I don't know why she's not more famous than she is.
