Synopsis

On Prince Dutiful's trail, Fitz crosses the Six Duchies. There he meets Civil, a young Witted nobleman, and the dark Laudwine, priestess of an extremist Witted movement. In the heart of the forests, the bastard also finds again what he believed lost forever.

Conclusion of the original Fool's Errand, La Secte Maudite explores the political and magical stakes of the Wit with rare finesse. Robin Hobb depicts a liberation movement tainted by extremism, minor characters of striking humanity, and an unexpected return that proves that nothing is ever truly lost in the Skill.

A soul bond cannot be broken. One only learns to carry it differently.Fool's Errand (Part 2) — Robin Hobb
