À propos de cet audio

 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.

Hobbs never fails to create characters and worlds of incredible depth, however the bleakness in this trilogy is palpable. Regardless it is hard not to be enthralled in the tragedy.

A Bleak Tale

I enjoyed the first book in this series but this one is a lot darker. This trilogy is very different from Robin Hobbs' other books that I have read. For instance this one has only the protagonist's point of view. There are a number of times when the reader can see upcoming problems before him and it seemed like someone as smart as he is should have been more aware. But then maybe the story wouldn't be as interesting.
There is a strong theme of women's rights in an old fashioned setting. This is a theme carried over from the first book.
I liked the English accent of the narrator, just a personal preference.
There was way too much about his weight although it is an integral part of the story. I got very tired of it on occasion. Some of the description is about body-shaming and I did feel badly for our hero over that. There is a lot description about the embarrassment and pain of being obese. And a fair share of bullies.
The descriptions of plague was sharp a reminder of our own pandemic.
There is lots about magic and an interesting duality to the story. All in all, I will probably listen to the third book because many say it is better.

Very different from Hobbs' other series
