I usually don't bother writing reviews but I figured this series from a usually solid writer was disappointing enough that it warranted a little warning to future readers The story as it unfolds isn't very well constructed and since I read them all at once in the collection I'm honestly surprised at how each book ended The books themselves cannot be read individually as there isn't a complete or satisfying narrative to be found in any individual volume; the action picks up almost directly where the reader was left at the end of the last which becomes uite annoying since Hobb then spends 10 15 pages doing exposition on the last book This is tedious for the reader going through the whole series in one go and read individually is a bit too much of an info dump all at once really stopping any amount of flow The setting is decent; it's a bit of a direct lift from the American tribes warssettlement of the West with the geography reversed the Gernians are expanding East instead of West in search of a path to the ocean but it's a picturesue backdrop More time could have been spent demonstrating of what Plainsmen magic is like what the Plans cultures are like and how the Gernian expansion has affected them but it's a minor point Any American reader will immediately have a mental reference for this story Non Americans might not have the same historical antecedents to fill in the gaps but it's not essentialMore disappointing is the plot and main character I've noticed in Hobb's previous writings that she has a tendency to use that High Fantasy trope of Fate or Destiny a bit too much and often uses some assumedly benign driving force to move her characters along In the case of Nevarre Burvelle main character and horribly uninteresting person that power is the Magic The Magic through what really seems like an accident of spiritual proportions chooses Nevarre to perform an incredibly convoluted service to the world by stopping the expansion of the Gernian nationroad to the East where a tribe of indigenous people live The Magic never even drops a single hint as to how this is to be accomplished and the main character who would really like to be an officer in the King's army isn't even aware that he is supposed to do anything until halfway through the 2nd book It is made rather obvious by the author that Nevarre has a destiny with a capital D but the character has been made purposefully dense to the point that he can actually perform magic and then actively pretend to himself that it didn't happen Watching this as a reader is horribly frustrating because I become very bored waiting for a character to catch up to the plot and Hobb manages to do this for the entire 3 book series Nevarre never really takes hold of his decisions and character arc and the few times he does the deus ex machina of The Magic makes sure that whatever he does creates horrible and sometimes obvious conseuences for every person around him He has no agency and since the story is told through his and only his perspective the reader is left with a feeling of being constantly lead to a destination that is easily seen on the horizonI would point out as well that the main reason for conflict between the Gernian expansion and the Specks the mountain tribe that does not want the road built is boilerplate and unoriginal The Specks do not want their ancestor trees cut down which are special trees that house the spirits of dead wisemenmagic users plus all their collective knowledge It's a dead on copy of the Piggy dilemma from Card's Ender series and handled no better than he did The reader is never really clued in on why this is such a bad thing; killing these trees is obviously bad to the Speck but for all their claims that they need the spirits of these ancestors to live the characters rarely if ever shown to be useful to the tribe You only hear them talk when they're about to be cut down The lone exception Lisana is actually one of the reasons Nevarre is a weak protagonist; she splits his soul in half and spends a year teaching the other half to do magic and have lots of sex Due to this strange bit of nonsense nearly 34 of the third book Nevarre the main character gets trapped inside his own mind barely able to act while his other self controls his body This goes on and on and the reader is never allowed to forget it It becomes a constant reminder that Nevarre is just a pawn with no power He literally becomes a voyeur to his own life A apparent metaphor for the reader being at the whims of the author I could not name Finally Nevarre understanding that The Magic wants him to do something asks what it is it would like him to do everyone tells him You know what you have to do Nevarre has no clue and no one else does Even when the solution comes it's highly illogical and depends entirely on the events of the story having already happened proving again that god is practically living in the machine of this narrative and no action by the characters has any meaning I should point out that Hobb also spends far too much time chewing scenery especially in the 3rd book when Nevarre spends most of his time doing nothing but walking in the woods and eating Eating is the mechanism that allows certain tribesman to gain magical powers so Nevarre spends a lot of time looking for food waiting for others to get him food to cook him food and eating food The way Hobb describes eating borders on the fetishistic and her descriptions of obesity as power are very detailed yet I somehow get this repulsed feeling from the text as if Hobb is euating weight with odd or vile sorcery we only see one character really use their magic powers in a positive way and all the rest are using their power to manipulate or harm others It's also not very exciting hearing someone describe for the 100th time how delicious a corncake is Perhaps my greatest annoyance with this title is that it leaves the reader with this strange helpless feeling The story is vastly negative in its treatment of Nevarre he's hated and discriminated against from day one either for his birth or weight thinks himself a coward mostly without cause is punished every time he does something he thinks is helpful etc and since he has no control over himself and is merely the tool of the Magicwe're left with a story about a character who can't make choices mostly just suffers and kind of gets a happy ending It's pretty much the Book of Job spread out far too long

If you're into stuff like this you can read the full reviewSurfeit of Cliché The Soldier Son Trilogy by Robin HobbOriginal Review 2012Hobb seems to have declined over the years “The Farseer” and “The Liveship Traders” were spectacular despite a certain amount of padding; Tawny Man a bit shapeless the Piebald plot abruptly falls by the wayside after the confrontation midway through book 2“The Soldier Son” in a new universe started well despite some obvious recycling most fathers in Hobb's fiction are either unloving or deadabsent and the dad here is no exception; meanwhile the uncle is an obvious recycling of Verity Fitz but the abrupt lurch at the beginning of the second book suggests some serious plot rethinking took place midway through the writing process
