    The farseer triology.

    It’s pretty interesting fantasy from about 20 odd years ago

    character driven introspective

      I read (listened) to it for the first time last year. The audiobooks I had sounded like they were ripped from cassette, it was AWFUL.

      I ended up getting the ebooks and read the first trilogy after stopping halfway through the first audiobook.

      My wife loved them when they were new and had been asking me to read them for awhile, but I was kinda disappointed in them. Really interesting magic system, I just felt like the writing was too simplistic.

      Also, your uncle inhabiting your body to have sex with someone was a pretty wild thing to read.

        It took some time to get used to the ebooks. I think it got better though, or I got used to it
