I discovered RH’s books in the public library some 6 years or so ago, because I was looking for something for summer-holidays. I started with AA and was hooked at once. I remember my husband and friends were very irritated, because I spent all my time with reading and were not addressable at all for hours . Since then I read all her books for several times (SS only once, because I also don’t really like it that much) and tell everybody, what an adorable writer Robin Hobb is, never mind if he wants to hear it or not . And I am proud to tell, that two of my friends, who were’nt interested in fantasy at all („puh, you and your fantasy“) fell also deeply in love with Fitz and the Fool, Nighteyes, Paragon, Ophelia, Amber etc.. The one friend told me just last week, that it’s my fault, that her housework has run down to a minimum and also the conversations with her husband .
