Summary
The triumphant conclusion to the magnificent Liveship Traders series.
The dragon, Tintaglia, has been released from her wizardwood coffin, only to find that the glories of her kingdom have passed into ancient memory.
Meanwhile, Malta Vestrit navigates the acid flow of the Rain Wild River in a decomposing boat, accompanied by the Satrap Cosgo and his Companion Kekki. Against hope, a ship appears in the alien waters, but does it mean rescue, or a further nightmare, for Malta?
In ruined Bingtown, the citizens are at war, against the Chalcedean mercenaries besieging the harbour, and also among themselves. If the city is to survive, Ronica Vestrit must unite all its peoples – both Trader and Tattooed – and liberate the city once and for all; but Companion Serilla has a different agenda, and is seeking to establish her own power base.
Althea and Brashen are finally at sea together, sailing the liveship Paragon into pirate waters in a last-ditch effort to rescue the Vestrit family liveship, Vivacia, stolen by the Pirate king, Kennit; but there is mutiny brewing in their rag-tag crew; and in the mind of the mad ship itself…
Wintrow has liberated She Who Remembers and she can at last fulfil her ancient purpose, but in doing so he has been terribly injured. If Wintrow dies, Kennit fears that Vivacia will lose her fragile sanity: a loss that will also threaten his dreams of power and glory. So he strikes a deal with the ship. And soon the waters around the Vivacia are seething with giant serpents, following the liveship as it sails to its destiny.
Majestic and sweeping, Ship of Destiny concludes the tale of the Vestrit family and their part in the history of The Liveship Traders with a soaring and triumphant finale to this unique series of epic fantasy.

End of the saga
I'm afraid that I didn't enjoy this nearly as much as the other books to date. It's unfortunate that most of this book is doom and gloom. The narrator did a fantastic job as always, but the story was a real long hard slog. Dragons – doom and gloom. Live ships, traders, all the main characters, doom and gloom. Obviously towards the end all the outstanding issues were resolved and things picked up a great deal, but I just didn't find it particularly enjoyable, which was a shame as I had loved the first two books.

Brilliant as all but…
My one issue is that I wish authors would decide how a city for example is pronounced and have narrators stick with it !
Throughout the Journey of Fitz the Fool and others , which involve the same cities and many characters names the pronunciation should remain the same . The voices given th those characters should be kept as similar as is possible with different narrators …. just my thoughts …

Master piece
What a fantastic story. Read with passion and theatricality. Robin Hobb is the queen of her genre and I wish I could give her and her books more than five stars

Loved it!
Great narration, really brought the characters to live. Epic story that culminates with an enthralling 2nd half. Couldn't stop listening to this.

A Great Conclusion
I enjoyed the whole trilogy, the characters were more compelling than those in the Farseer trilogy mostly I think because of the multiple povs. The reader was very good, the only small fault was some of her male voices were a little samey . There's a lot of violence and a scene that in modern books would certainly have brought a trigger warning.

Long!
A long story but one that pulls you in with the range of characters. Some parts of the narration were a little cringe worthy but over all a well told story.

Great end to the Liveships trilogy
All three books are entertaining, the storyline captivating. The books are cleverly structured, the threads fitting together well. The multitude of characters is easy to follow, aided perfectly by a stunning narration.
