The Liveship Traders series revolves around the fortunes of the Vestrit family and their liveship Vivacia. I’m usually not a fan of stories that take place on ships, but with this gem in the fantasy genre, Robin Hobb has changed my mind and I will be rereading this series for years to come! This series does take place in the Realm of the Elderlings world, but the series can absolutely be read on its own with little to no input from her other series. In my humble opinion, The Liveship traders trilogy is the best example of Robin Hobbs work and it is my favorite series written by her. ![]() There are few authors whom write beautiful prose the way that Hobb does while at the same time emotionally destroy you, as she is not very kind to her characters. Although there are many excellent female authors in the fantasy genre today, my go to answer is always Robin Hobb. ![]() Over the years I have been asked time and time again for recommendations of female authors in the fantasy genre. ![]()
