I cried. Of course I cried. It's good to be back with Fitz and the Fool. Slow start but that's part for the course in the realm of the elderling. It's different because Foyz is an adult now but half the people he is dealing with are the same as before. They have to learn to adjust to this change. And he is also not the known Farseer bastard, but as a loner and a servant. So again this change in status must be adjusted to. His connection to the next generation will be interesting to see. The overarching plot is still a mystery but I hope more will be revealed seeing as how we got some connections to the liveship traders trilogy.
