I agree the live ship series is her best random thoughts Send a noteboard - 22/01/2010 05:39:32 PM
and I do enjoy Hobbs but I think Jacob is right saying it is a little underwhelming. A good read but not a great book.

Does Erikson get better? perringoldeneyes - 12/01/2010 05:29:51 PM 1455 Views
I read somewhere that reading Erikson involves being completely lost for the first half of the book- Gher - 12/01/2010 05:41:35 PM 876 Views
I agree with the Brandon Sanderson suggestion. Jacob - 12/01/2010 05:43:27 PM 866 Views
You didn't like Robin Hobb? Gher - 12/01/2010 05:49:19 PM 790 Views

I think Liveship is the best of her series, so you should give it a try ursidae - 12/01/2010 06:40:51 PM 837 Views

Her strength is her characters, IMO. Gher - 12/01/2010 07:44:23 PM 825 Views
See, I think her characters are weak, at least the main characters. Jacob - 12/01/2010 08:48:10 PM 783 Views
LIVESHIP isn't first-person, which is a big plus in its favour. *NM* Werthead - 13/01/2010 04:19:42 AM 318 Views

A couple suggestions: (edit) Jacob - 12/01/2010 05:51:35 PM 968 Views
No. Burn it. Erikson is horrid. Read Sci-Fi instead. Start with KSR and Alastair Reynolds. *NM* The Shrike - 12/01/2010 07:49:14 PM 385 Views
