Just curious to see what other people thought about the three trilogies

The Farseer trilogy
The Liveship trilogy
The Tawny Man trilogy

I personally enjoyed the first thought the second was tolerable and thoroughly enjoyed the third trilogy with my favorite book of all nine being the last and final book.
Anyone else read these??

I read the Liveship trilogy. I had to force myself to read the last book, and I'm afraid it turned me off seeking out any more Robin Hobb. What makes the Tawny man any better?

the tawny man trilogy ties up all the loose ends of the farseer trilogy and the liveship trilogy and the last book of the tawny man trilogy is one of the best ending books i have ever read I think

I've only read The Liveship Traders Trilogy by Robin Hobb, and I really liked it. I intended to read the Farseer and the Dawny Man but interestingly I never got around to it. But since you say they're really good, I might just start reading them.

I LOVE The Liveship Traders trilogy! exclaim Winntrow was favourite character. heart I also read Assassin's Apprentice and - even though I liked it - I didn't like it enough to want to read the rest of the series.

I've read The Liveship Traders trilogy, and that got me looking for the other books. I've read the first two Farseer books, and I have the third one bought.

Honestly, I have to say that I have only ever read one book that I didn't like, but Robin Hobb is definitely among my favourite authors. I really like the style of writing. The characters are believable, and if a character is written as a nuisance, then they really are. I find that it is easy to get drawn into their lives, and I look forward to learning more about them each time I sit down with one of the books.
