Well, I'm on book three of the Liveship Traders series.
Overall, I like the series. Some of the material is a little too easy to catch though in terms of plot development. One thing I don't like is that so many of the characters are introduced, at least in the Liveship series, as so whinny, that I really can't bring myself to care about them, even as they continue to evolve as characters. Her brining other, younger people in more frequently, is a nice touch here.
One thing I liked was how people from the Six Duchies were touched on and had a few apperances here, but weren't very well known. Greatly shows the effect distance has on a low magic world.
Looking forward to the last series. It'll be interesting to see young Fitz again after not seeing him here.

), and am slowing down with the third book now that I'm back at work. I (obviously) really enjoyed the first two, but couldn't really say why right now; the characters are so intriguing that I want to know what comes next, I guess. I'm about 1/3 of the way through QUEST, and I just picked up the first Ship book so I have that ready to go when I'm done.
