I forgot how good his prose is. I’m not usually taken by that kind of thing. I read a lot of books with dragons and spaceships on the cover, but his similes and metaphors are so elegant and concise that every time they come up, I think, ‘Goddamn, I wish I could describe something one-tenth as well as that.’ I haven’t finished yet, but it’s also a fun story about how a fae keeps themselves occupied in the mortal world while they’re supposed to be laying low
Robin Hobb
I’ve heard some of Robin Hobb. I’ll check it out.
Robin Hobb might be the most well-rounded fantasy author out there.
There isn’t a single technical aspect of writing she isn’t fantastic at. And her character work is arguably the best in the genre.
Although, like many writers of great characters, her novels are extremely depressing.
