I've re-read those ones at least once (don't remember exactly how many times I read each book). I still pick through them for favorite scenes.
Maybe I just like reading about ships and pirates.
I've had no desire to return to the Fitz trilogies, though I've read them both. Liked them, but nowhere near to the level of Liveship.
I've only read the first of the Soldier Son, thought it was ok, but will probably read the rest anyway.

I think Liveship is the best of her series, so you should give it a try

Her strength is her characters, IMO.

See, I think her characters are weak, at least the main characters.

LIVESHIP isn't first-person, which is a big plus in its favour. *NM*

No. Burn it. Erikson is horrid. Read Sci-Fi instead. Start with KSR and Alastair Reynolds. *NM*

Keep in mind that Erikson was an archeologist and anthropologist.
