Quite simple. I would have to go for Liveships, though I can't vote .

Such a toss up between Assassin's and Tawny Man though I like Liveship too - so me = undecided

I went for Farseer, because it was the one that grabbed me, and wouldn't let go, and made me love Fitz and Nighteyes and the Fool and Burrich and everyone else.

Liveship was excellent, but not the same.

Tawny Man is great so far, but I'm only just starting book 2, so I can't quite judge it yet. Although as much as I love it so far, I'm not sure if it tops Farseer.

Definitely farseer. It was new, exciting, different...

The other two series' got very complex and a bit bogged down with description and plot. The Farseer trilogy has the advantage by a long way imo.

I have yet to read the Tawny Man trilogy but I have to say I liked the Liveship Traders more than Farseer. Maybe because of the many points of view or because I read it in English while Farseer was translated.

I voted Tawny Man, but they all had something special. Liveship Traders was less personal - it's not in first-person POV. It was wonderful, but of a different style. Hard to compare. I loved the characters, but did not feel like they were my flesh and blood. Between Tawny Man and Farseer... Difficult.... But. In Tawny Man, the prose is just so much more flowing and beautiful, and all the rough edges have been smoothed away from the plot. Especially in Fool's Fate... Ahhhhhhhh :)
