Maak kennis met de familie Vestrit, eigenaars van een pratend schip. In het boek komt te veel aan bod om na te vertellen. Ik kan je wel beloven dat dit boek je meesleept vanaf de eerste pagina t/m de laatste bladzijde van het derde deel. ( )

This is only the first book in this trilogy, but so far I have found the Farseer story more enjoyable. Even so, I am anxious to find out what will happen with all the characters in the next book. This is certainly not a happy story; I'll have to see what happens in the next 2 books. ( )

It took me a little while to get into this book. Hobb takes her time setting up the background before things get going. They finally do and it was an enjoyable read. The story follows one Trader family and their liveship. There are many threads being woven together between the family members and how they relate to each other. I'm looking forward to picking up where this one leaves off in the second book. ( )

This comment goes for the whole trilogy:

Characters: Just loved the cast. I loved the troubled family. I loved the aspiring pirates. They all were real and touchable.
Plot: Very solid. Political upheaval. Reasonable family strife.
Style: So epic yet relateble. Not sure how the author made that juxtaposition work. ( )

First book in The Liveship Traders fantasy trilogy. Set in Bingtown, a thriving port town built on trading and featuring “liveships” that are made of wizardwood and come to life once three generations of the family who commissioned it have died on its deck. The story of Vivacia, the liveship of the Vestrit family, and several of the family members and others too of course. Also has plenty of good pirate action. Very enjoyable with a variety of interesting characters, surprising plot twists and read quickly considering the door-stop size of the thing. A+ ( )

Ship of Magic

Bokbeskrivning

Amazon.com (ISBN 0553575635, Mass Market Paperback)

Robin Hobb, author of the Farseer trilogy, has returned to that world for a new series. Ship of Magic is a sea tale, reminiscent of Moby Dick and Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series in its details of shipboard life. It is also a fantasy adventure with sea serpents, pirates, and all sorts of magic. The liveships have distinct personalities and partner with specific people, somewhat like Anne McCaffrey's Brain ships and their Brawns, though these are trading ships and have full crews.

Hobb has peopled the book with many wonderfully developed characters. Most of the primary ones are members of the Vestritts, an Old Trader family which owns the liveship Vivacia. Their stories are intercut with those of Kennit, the ambitious pirate Brashen, the disinherited scion of another family who served on the Vestritt's ship, and Paragon, an old liveship abandoned and believed mad. The sentient sea serpents have their own story hinted at, as well.

Though Ship of Magic is full of action, none of the plotlines get resolved in this book. Readers who resent being left with many questions and few answers after almost 700 pages should think twice before starting, or wait until the rest of the series is out so that their suspense won't be too prolonged. But Hobb's writing draws you in and makes you care desperately about what will happen next, the mark of a terrific storyteller. --Nona Vero
