Publisher Description
Robin Hobb's thrilling Soldier Son trilogy comes to its conclusion in Renegade's Magic. Nevare Burvelle stands accused of a host of heinous crimes, including murder. And he remains under the thrall of the Speck magic that twists his psyche into a ruthless alter-ego. But all is not lost. Perhaps if he asserts control of this other self, he will emerge transformed and triumphant. "Robin Hobb is one of our very best fantasy writers ."-Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times best-selling author

" Again: too long! "
— Diane, 1/18/2014 -
" this is coming from the library is why i'm gonna read it "
— Kem, 11/18/2013 -
" For a wrap-up trilogy, the different plot lines were tied in effectively. Throughout the series, the story seemed to be more about the main character with the plot in a secondary position. "
— Emmanuel, 11/17/2013 -
" Just the tiniest bit predictable at the end but, as always, a beautiful read "
— Michele, 10/23/2013 -
" This is a good trilogy. It's not as good as the Assassin triology, but it's good. You can get bogged down in the third book, but it's well worth seeing it through to the end. "
— Angela, 10/20/2013 -
" Good, solid ending to a trilogy. I did hope for something other than a Deus Ex Machina ending, though ... "
— Joe, 10/9/2013 -
" Meh. Just like the rest of the series. As before, I enjoyed Robin Hobb's writing but got quite sick of the characters, the story, and -- of course -- the anti-expansionist themes. "
— Adrienne, 7/4/2013 -
" A satisfying conclusion to the Solder Son trilogy although a trifle slow in spots when compared to the previous books. Robin Hobb always amazes me with her rich imagination and world building skills. Well worth the read. "
— Tamara, 2/21/2013 -
" this one just went on and on "
— Mandy, 5/1/2012 -
" Unfortunately I gave up on this one after several hours of boredom. Reading about the Specks was a trippy, nonsensical experience that did absolutely nothing for me; I couldn't bring myself to care about any of the characters. "
— Steph, 10/21/2011 -
" I was glad this series finally ended. The pacing was slow and I finished the series just out of a feeling that the story might redeem itself. I should have read another series entirely. "
— Timothy, 9/20/2011 -
" Didn't actually finish so much as quit reading. This series started off very well but went steadily downhill as time went on "
— Steve, 1/1/2011 -
" I enjoyed this series, but it wasn't superfantastic. I've liked other Hobb books much better. But I did enjoy it, and it certainly held my interest all the way through. "
