Why oh why do the larger print books cost more? And more to the point, why do they only publish them??

Okay, now I have to say this quickly. I was a little saddened by the end of farseers. So should I really bother reading fools erend?

Heh, see my rant about Tradepaper backs in the general forum for my opinions of the larger print books.

And YES! Do read Fool's Errand, and the Live Ship books as well. The ending of Farseers was bit of a let down for some, but the other books are really good. Highly recommended.

Well, Fool's Errand is a bit sad in some ways too. Fitz deserves better, but who knows - maybe Robin Hobb will give him something good in the end. The next Farseer book, Golden Fool, is due out here in Sept and my mouth is watering.

Yep, my knees are weak for it too. Fitz has never really had a good time of it. Robin has punished him dreadfully but that's part of what makes the tale so addictive. Go with the tears Satine. Fool's Errand is definitely worth it.
