No Disrespect (SS spoilers)

Okay I beleive this is coming a bit late but I would like to defend the soldiers son trilogy for a few reasons. First of all because i myself served in the army I do believe the way in which Hobb portrayed his lifestyle and his sense of obligation to do which is always right was quite accurate (and yes the ranking of another soldier being higher then you does mean he is more important enlist in any army and you will learn that in 5 minutes). Another important factor I would like to point out is anyone who looks A drop deeper into the book will see that nevare is never fully whole the entire story and part of that character which could be so interesting is supposed to be a very dull and boring story and i believe if you look into the book you will see that his cousin epiny at first glance sees Nevare as A extreme bore. Now my final point is this i read soldiers son trilogy before i read anything that was in the farseer world and i will put it plainly fitzchivalry is a completely different character and I think those most dissapointed are those expecting another tawny man or farseer trilogy which I dont believe this came to show us at all and I think if you reread this and give it some more thought you will find that this story is also a riveting story in its own way and in many many ways has alot more relevance to our societies flaws and issues then the farseer world had so the only thing i can really say bad about it is that its A bit to down to earth but I think thats part of the charm to the whole trilogy.
