Story
Logen Ninefingers, infamous barbarian, has finally run out of luck. Caught in one feud too many, he's on the verge of becoming a dead barbarian - leaving nothing behind him but bad songs, dead friends, and a lot of happy enemies. Nobleman, dashing officer, and paragon of selfishness, Captain Jezal dan Luthar has nothing more dangerous in mind than fleecing his friends at cards and dreaming of glory in the fencing circle. But war is brewing, and on the battlefields of the frozen North they fight by altogether bloodier rules.

Story
For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

Publisher's summary
The gripping finale to Robin Hobb’s classic Farseer trilogy.
Keystone. Gate. Crossroads. Catalyst.
Fitz is about to discover the truth about the Fool's prophecy. Having been resurrected from his fatal tortures in Regal's dungeons, Fitz has once more foiled Regal's attempts to be rid of him. Now, back in his own body, and after months of rehabilitation, Fitz begins the painful and slow process of learning the ways of a man again.
Under the watchful eye of Burrich, old King Shrewd's Stablemaster, Fitz must learn to cast off the wild but carefree ways of the wolf and enter once more the human world: a world beset ever more viciously by the relentless Red Ship Raiders who are now left free to plunder any coastal town they please. But more immediately, a world in which he finds he is utterly alone.
Regal has stripped the kingdom of its riches and retired to the inland city of Tradeford. Of Verity, on his quest to find the legendary Elderings, there has been no word; Molly, Kettricken, and the Fool have all vanished. Unless Fitz can find Verity and help him in his quest, the Six Duchies will perish and there will be no safe place to live.

Hated the ending
I enjoyed most of the book. At times it was really slow and I almost felt like stopping, but most of the time it was enjoyable. The first two books were better in my opinion.

wonderful book and geniusly narrated
When I started the first book of the trilogy I wasn't very happy with either the story nor narrating but still I knew I would like it.
I'm not sure when it happened but I absolutely fell in love with the series.
Now I fear starting the next trilogy. Apparently it's not a story directly about Fitz and the wolf and narrated by another. The reviews for that narrator are also terrible compared to Boehmer's excellent feedback. I looked for other books narrated by him in the end. I will try the next trilogy though. Hopefully I will like it.

Robin Hobb is a Master storyteller and novelist.
I read her Farseer Trilogy previously. Also her other works. I loved it so much that now, I listen to the audio version. It's a work of art, which I'll read yet again. I can honestly say that I'd recommend this to anyone. Feel free to read her other works as well!

Great long story, slightly weak ending
I loved every minute of it, right up until near the end. It then seemed like the author just wanted to be done with it, like some things just magically happen or things that the lead character has been struggling with always he just sort of suddenly succeeds with, the cavalry files in from overhead and saves the day etc. A little bit too easy it feels like, when comparing to the otherwise very long and detailed book about every minute of this guy's life.

Wonderful trilogy
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It is a moving story of commitment and loyalty set in quasi medieval times.
What three words best describe Paul Boehmer’s voice?
offputting pronunciation
Any additional comments?
I read the trilogy and feel that I was given even more by hearing it too.

Breathtaking series
The farseer trilogy is really amazing and the audiobooks definitely don't disappoint.
the narrator sometimes switch voices when it doesn't fits and that can be a little confusing. But it doesn't happen a lot to really bother the experience.
An amazing end to this trilogy and a really great introduction to this magnificent world that Robin has created. A fantasy masterpiece definitely.

Could not stop listening
Any additional comments?
An excellent follow up to Assassin's Apprentice, this book is full of action and adventure. Several times I found myself sitting in my car for several minutes at the end of my commute, waiting for a good place to pause the story, but they are hard to find! Once again, Paul Boehmer reads excellently, and does the story a great justice in the telling.
