There seem to be a lot of positive reactions to the Rain Wilds Chronicles, and I'm just wondering did anybody else not enjoy these books? I completely adore the Farseer, Liveship and Tawny Man trilogies but felt really disappointed after reading the Rain Wilds books. Although I enjoyed revisiting the rainwilds I felt that there was no strong plot to the books...nothing much happened, there wasn't really any action, it was mostly just Thymara/Alise/Sedric changing their ideas about themselves and their lives and to be honest I didnt feel enough attachment to the characters to care that much about their issues. It also felt like an anti-climax at the end, there were no real twists or anything.
I really am a Hobb fan, I just think that in comparison to her earlier series, the Rain Wilds books were not in the same league at all. Anybody else feel the same way?
