Thanks, I can't wait to start reading them! But I may have to wait til the summer, I'm bombarded atm with uni work But I may well start my own predictions thread when I do read them, maybe you can all laugh at my predictions XD I was reading predictions for DH on some thread (I think it was another forum) and a lot of people had some really good guesses!
I've noticed in fantasy books, the covers don't always match up with the actual story. It's so annoying! It feels like they just slap a cover on the book, that is vaguely in theme with the story, but not completely. Obviously this isn't the case for all books though... I've seen new versions of Hobb's books, where the cover is just a browny background, with a picture of an animal on the cover (eg, a serpant, dragon, wolf, etc.. depending on which book it is). It's a good idea to bring out all her books in a similar style! Although those covers arn't as exciting as some other versions of her books, at least they relate to the actual book, and are kept quite simple.
Oh and thank you very much for the pdf!!! I'm so tempted to start reading now
