Über dieses E-Book
“A full master of the epic fantasy.”
—Tulsa World
One of the world’s most acclaimed fantasists, New York Times bestselling author Robin Hobb returns to the world of her popular “Tawny Man” trilogy with Dragon Haven—the second book, following Dragon Keeper (“Imaginative, literate, and compassionate from first page to last” —Booklist) in an epic adventure about the resurgence of dragons in a world that both needs and fears them. Hobb, whose Soldier Son Trilogy (Shaman’s Crossing, Forest Mage, Renegade’s Magic) has won raves from critics, fans, and peers alike, returns to the Rain Wilds with Dragon Haven, and readers of Raymond Feist, Terry Brooks, and Lois McMaster Bujold will eagerly follow.

- Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen4/5I enjoyed Dragon Haven more than Dragon Keeper, as the characters go through more development and this part of the story ends very satisfactorily. It still felt a little slow, but Hobb writes so well that I didn't mind this at all! Looking forward to picking up the next book in the series.
- Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen5/5The first book, is called The Dragon Keeper.The second book, Dagon Haven, is a continuation from the first book. The first few pages were about ”what had gone before” for those who may not remember where things were at, luckily for me I did, but I read it anyway to bring it all clear in my mind.This is the second series I’ve read by Robin Hobb. The first one, The Farseer Trilogy, was great but it had long sections where nothing seemed to happen and equally long descriptions and weather reports (which I really do hate). I was able to let those things go because I became attached to the characters. However, in The Rain Wild Chronicles the author didn’t go off in these tangents as much and because of that I felt the books were easier to read…and much more enjoyable.The story is told from several view points; all had their secrets and stubborn ways. I especially liked watching the characters grow and change. And there were “issues” to be dealt with that were quite confronting as well. Romance was foremost in these books, so I imagine they were mainly written for women, as I can’t see men enjoying them as much as there is lots of conflict, of the emotional kind, but few of the fighting kind.The review is short as I don’t feel the need to go on and on about it. I really did enjoy the book and recommend it. It’s different.
- Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen5/5I enjoyed this book a lot. I've always loved Hobb's stories. They all have a trend of making the reader a little depressed but this series is less so that way. That or I have simply not felt it as much as usual. Hobb is all about character development. If you're looking for a book packed with action this is not the one for you. It has plenty of action but the primary focus is on the characters and how they grow and develop. This most likely contributed to why I liked the first book less than this second book. In the first the characters were younger, more naive, or more set in their ways. Now there are big changes. Each character is changing, growing; and watching that evolution is fascinating. Another fascinating aspect is the dragons themselves. Dragons tend to be personified as beautiful magnificent creatures. Here they are not. These dragons are sickly (although that is another thing changing! Cheer) and arrogant. They are as intelligent, maybe more intelligent, than humans and they know it. Think of how we have treated other humans in history and all the strife we have caused. These dragons have the same capabilities. They are dangerous in more ways than just being big with claws, wings and teeth. Hobb's writing style is also fantastic along with her world building. I'm really looking forward to the next book to see even more growth.
- Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen4/5Predictable? A bit. Well written? Yes! Robin Hobb, thank you for another excellent instalment of character driven storytelling.
