I have read some of her books (I was suprised to find she was female with robin as a name). Im finding the liveship series slow to start though. I liked the farseer ones and fool ones.
I have just read the first book of a new series she is writing called shamans crossing...its not bad but i still prefer 'fitz'

I read the Liveship Traders and found them to be awesome.
Alot more 'adult' than most fantasy authors dealing with many adult concepts.
I found it very difficult to put them down once I started reading them and they captured me from the 1st chapter
I would find it hard to rate any other books higher than this series...9.5/10

The liveship ones have picked up a bit now im a little way through. The new series is the soldier son one right?
OK if you have alot of reading time on your hands and a bit of spare cash, then you might like the wheel of time series by Robert Jordan. It is definitely for more mature readers but I found them great...problem is if they dont have the books at a local library or you want to own them...then 11 books isnt cheap lol (But i had to buy them because i loved them)...the 12th and final one is out soon.
Dont let the number of books daunt you (they are not small books either
I got put onto the wheel of time by the same person who put me onto Robin Hobb... I Loved both authors!
