This makes for an even better reading experience with each of the Vestrits, the pirate Kennit and all of the other supporting characters having their own absorbing plotlines and perspectives. In this book we get closer to the secret behind wizardwood and the terrible truth of what it truly is. I also loved the links with the Farseer trilogy with references to the Mountain Kingdom and carved dragons. This is the first time where I feel like I know where the timeline sits between the Farseer and Liveship Traders books, with a reference to the Red Ship Wars having been over for several years. However, while you definitely need to read the previous Liveship Traders book before reading this one, you don’t need to have read the Farseer trilogy. I’d just definitely recommend it because they are also brilliant. Review: Totally rivetting, don't expect to do any housework once you get into these books - The whole series of books here is totally rivetting and I have done absolutely no housework since they arrived on my kindle. You are drawn irrevocably into the lives of these ships and their families, so much so that I purchased the sequel which covers the passage and growing of the young dragons after their traumatic births. I am now about half way through the sequel books and again cannot put them down. Have to be very strict with myself, but thankfully the battery on the kindle tells me when it needs recharging so that gives me the nod to get on and do something else, always watching the clock as to when the kindle will be recharged and I can start reading again. I feel totally lazy but not a bit guilty at avoiding housework and other chores to complete this series. Thank you Robin Hobbs for a superb story line. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 38,576 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 132 in Historical Fantasy (Books) 164 in Political Fiction (Books) 364 in Epic Fantasy (Books) | | Book 2 of 3 | Liveship Traders Trilogy | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (7,180) | | Dimensions | 12.9 x 5.1 x 19.8 cm | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 0008117462 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0008117467 | | Item weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 912 pages | | Publication date | 10 Sept. 2015 | | Publisher | HarperVoyager | ## Images ![The Mad Ship: Robin Hobb: Book 2 (The Liveship Traders) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91uwuJ-pTOL.jpg) ![The Mad Ship: Robin Hobb: Book 2 (The Liveship Traders) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Saedc8Z2L.jpg) ![The Mad Ship: Robin Hobb: Book 2 (The Liveship Traders) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41n-geFZ81L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Characters and plotting deepen - another excellent tale *by L***P on 2 May 2022* The story gets more complex in The Mad Ship as the characters first come together then separate out and more become focus points for the story.

You are drawn irrevocably into the lives of these ships and their families, so much so that I purchased the sequel which covers the passage and growing of the young dragons after their traumatic births.

Thank you Robin Hobbs for a superb story line. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent Fantasy novel and well worth a read. *by R***R on 6 May 2016* I may have found it difficult getting in to Robin Hobb's books but it seems that with a little time and perseverance (or perhaps I simply started with the wrong book) that she is a writer well worth reading. I gave up a couple of times, foolishly, it now, seems. This is an excellently worked fantasy, as was the first in the trilogy, it is well written, well planned and thoroughly engaging. Upon finishing the first book in the series I immediately bought this one and for me there is no greater compliment to an author's work than, I want to read more about those characters and their situations. I am very much looking forward to reading the third in the trilogy. Here comes my only bugbear (this is nothing to do with Robin Hobb or the quality of her excellent series) and that is the first two books are competitively priced for the Kindle on Amazon and so of course you wish to read the third but then there is a huge hike in the price. This is not unusual on kindle, something to tempt you in and then whap! you are paying over the odds. I have seen this with a few series now. I had a kobo e-reader before I swapped to Amazon and Kindle and I prefer the Kindle but unless it was a new release all books in a series on kobo were priced the same. Is this a bit of Hokum to boost Amazons profits? ## Frequently Bought Together - The Mad Ship (The Liveship Traders, Book 2) - Ship of Destiny (The Liveship Traders, Book 3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/61992771-the-mad-ship-robin-hobb-book-2-the-liveship-traders](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/61992771-the-mad-ship-robin-hobb-book-2-the-liveship-traders) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
