“Hobb is probably one of the best writers of the fantasy genre currently operating. With Robin Hobb you do not get the standard good versus evil story in which every character is one or the other. Instead her characters are believable, human and flawed.” - Birmingham Post
“Robin Hobb is one of our very best fantasy writers. Her novels are always fresh, entertaining, and completely engrossing.” - Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Sandworms of Dune
“The Soldier Son [trilogy] can be read as a political satire on American military aggression, but on a more personal level it is profoundly perceptive about the challenge faced by the honorable, brave and good. Nevarre is a true hero.” - London Times
“[A] master fantasist.” - Kansas City Star
“Hobb is a remarkable storyteller.” - The Guardian
