A luminary in SF literature, Robin Hobb continues her marvelous Soldier Son trilogy with part two, Forest Mage.

Nevare Burvelle has survived major combat and is making a quick recovery from a disease plaguing his fellows in the King's army. He also believes he is free from the Speck magic that held him under its sway. Now traveling home to rendezvous with his fiancée, Nevare suffers haunting visions and soon realizes that malicious magic still resides within him - and is intent on destroying everything he holds dear.

The first half.id well written and performed, but it has some brutal stuff. The ending works. It pays for the work you put in.

First half brutal, than you get what you paid for.

After Shamans crossing, I was a little bit disappointed in the story. Our hero seemed a bit doltish and naive. well, he still is, but he's learning. Oh so slowly. One thing that makes this story so remarkable, is how I still want to keep reading, even as I despise the foolishness of the hero and the somewhat heavy-handed moralizing not found in her other works. nonetheless, I have to know what happens to these people! Robin Hobb is a master of world-building.

is anythibg better than a story by Robin Hobbs?

I adore Robin Hobb's writing: her books are a treasure. Her writing is rich and detailed and her world building is beyond compare. I have enjoyed every one of her books that I have read. This one included. That being said there were elements of this story that i had a difficult time with. dispite this i enjoyed it very much
